I was looking for the light
I don't wanna be the problem
I was in it for a night
You said you wanted something stronger than you had
And that was that
You took my hand and then we slipped out of the back
You didn't tell, I didn't ask
I guess that I assumed that it was in the past
Oh, Adeline, I'm not saying that it was a crime
I know I shouldn't feel so surprised
But I turned to stone when you called him back
And you told him I'm out of your life
Guess you just used me for an alibi
Whatever makes you feel justified
I took the fall and you fled the scene with my hands tied
Oh, Adeline (lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
Why did you lie? (Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
Oh, Adeline (lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
Why did you lie? (Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie)
I wanna jump into a cab
And tell them: Take me anywhere else
Was this always in the plan you had?
A scapegoat to take the blame for
What you did and what you said
You took my hand and then you threw me off the ledge
You didn't cry, I didn't beg
I guess I'll fold while being dealt a dirty hand
Oh, Adeline, I'm not saying that it was a crime
I know I shouldn't feel so surprised
But I turned to stone when you called him back
And you told him I'm out of your life
Guess you just used me for an alibi
Whatever makes you feel justified
I took the fall and you fled the scene with my hands tied
And all you had to do was look back
Did our fire thaw your frozen heart?
You threw me on the pile in your closet
With your skeletons, in the dark
And we were laying on my death bed
Our story ended in the prologue
You took what you wanted and ran back into his arms
And I turned to stone
Oh, Adeline, I guess that I was just an alibi
I hope that helps you feel justified
I took the fall and you fled the scene with my hands tied
