[Intro – Spoken over groove]
“Oooh… lies never looked so beautiful…”
Sparks in the mirror… flashes in your eyes…
Truth was never in the palette, baby…”
[Verse 1]
You wore red like a revolution
But your lips whispered sweet confusion
Blue like the calm before the storm
I should’ve known, that shade was not the norm
Green with envy, silver tongue
Painted dreams where we belong
Neon lights, but the feeling's gone
Dancing in a web that you spun
[Pre-Chorus]
You dressed it up in technicolor
A masterpiece that hides another
I saw the cracks behind the shine
Truth fades out in every line
[Chorus]
The colors of a lie — so vivid, so divine
Dancing through the night with a heart you redesigned
Oh, the sparkle in your eye — a hypnotic alibi
Baby, I was blinded by the colors…
The colors of a lie
[Verse 2]
Gold for promises you never kept
Velvet tones in secrets you’ve slept
You said love, but your hues betrayed
A disco ball of masquerade
Purple smoke and phantom charms
We spun like vinyl in your arms
You drew a rainbow with no end
A spectrum twist you can’t defend
[Pre-Chorus]
You blurred the lines and bent the light
Wrapped the truth in Friday night
I see it now, the painted skies
Were just illusions in disguise
[Chorus]
The colors of a lie
like fireworks in July
They dazzle for a moment, then they flicker out and die
Oh, your touch electrified — but baby, it was sly
Caught me in your prism of the colors…
The colors of a lie
[Bridge – Funk Breakdown / Vocoder]
“Chromatic deception… emotional reflection…”
“You said love, but it was just projection…”
“Layered tones, false affection… in your disco direction…”
“Fade to black… no connection…”
[Final Chorus – Double Time / Full Harmony]
The colors of a lie — still burning in my mind
I danced into the flame, now I'm leaving it behind
No more truth to justify, no more reasons why
I’m stepping out the spectrum of the colors…
The colors of a lie
[Outro – Repeating Fade]
Oooooh, the colors… the colors of a lie…
(Lie… lie… lie…)
Shining bright… just to say goodbye…
(Lie… lie… lie…)
