Kenneth - Heartbreak Cake Lyrics

It started sweet like sugar and wine
The kind of love you'd think would last overtime
But under the glaze there's something cold
A bitterness we couldn't hold
Late night whispers turned to sighs
A touch that felt like a goodbye
You covered it up with pretty lies
But I could taste the truth in your eyes
And it all looks so perfect on the outside
But underneath there's nowhere left to hide
A love that's dressed in sweet disguise
Burns like fire the moment you try
Heartbreak cake so hard to resist
But one taste and you'll feel the twist
Looks so perfect, tempting too
But deep inside it poisons you
We piled on words we didn't mean
Frosted with hope in between
Each kiss we shared a little less real
And I swallowed the hurt I tried to conceal
The cracks grew wide but we smoothed them down
Pretending love was still around
But the flavor of doubt was always there
Lurking behind every stare
You served me love with a hollow grin
But I could taste the emptiness within
Each bite was laced with what we lost
A love that crumbled at every cost
Heartbreak cake so hard to resist
But one taste and you'll feel the twist
Looks so perfect, tempting too
But deep inside it poisons you
We let it rise on broken dreams
Decorated with false extremes
Covered the cracks, hoping they'd stay
But love like this just fades away
Heartbreak cake so hard to resist
But one taste and you'll feel the twist
Looks so perfect, tempting too
But deep inside it poisons you
You said it's sweet but now I know
This kind of love can only grow cold
Heartbreak cake, it's bound to break
A love that's sweet but always fake
