Somebody cry wolf for me
pretend I'm not another sheep
someone look me in the eyes
say you see right through my disguise

Somebody cry wolf for me
pretend I stole your heart
someone say that I could kill them
cause your heart is in my hands

Cry wolf or cross your fingers
Just tell me one sweet lie
Just look me in the eye
pretend I'm more than the trophies on my shelf

cry wolf
cross your fingers
set your damn pants on fire
just don't let the cat out of the bag
let me believe I'm more than just a f*g
Somebody cry wolf to me
