[Intro – Film camera sound fx]
Smile for the flash.
Lie like it lasts.

[Verse 1]
We post like we’re golden / Filters on the cracks
Laugh like nothing’s broken / While love slips through the back
We hold hands for the angle / But our hearts don’t align
Got strangers thinking we’re perfect / While we rot inside
---
[Pre-Chorus]
Your arm around me, but you look at the screen
Like you’re posing for her, not for me
We say “forever” under captions and light
But we don’t even talk at night
---
[Hook]
We frame the lies like polaroids / Smiling while we self-destroy
Act like we’re a perfect storm / But we both know we’re worn
Every picture’s just a mask we wear
For a love that’s no longer there
We frame the lies…
Like we still care
---
[Verse 2]
Our love’s gone vintage — frozen in time
Cute in a photo, dead in real life
We fake it better than most people dream
But I’d trade every like for something real with meaning
---
[Pre-Chorus]
Remember when kisses weren’t staged?
When “I love you” didn’t sound fake?
Now you crop me out in your mind
While we play pretend in the timeline
---
[Hook]
We frame the lies like polaroids / Smiling while we self-destroy
Act like we’re a perfect storm / But we both know we’re worn
Every picture’s just a mask we wear
For a love that’s no longer there
We frame the lies…
Like we still care
---
[Bridge – Echoed, dreamy]
Click, flash, caption this
One more lie we won't admit
We're the couple they wish they had
But we’d trade it all to get it back
---
[Final Hook – Drop instrumental, raw vocals]
We frame the lies like polaroids / Smiling while we self-destroy
We’re a headline with no voice / A rewind with no choice
Every photo’s just a pretty scar
Of two people who went too far
We frame the lies...
And call it art
