lyrics

You tell your friends I'm doing well
That I like the beach out here
You say I'm working all the time
I've got a good career.

And when I send my picture, you put it in a frame,
So everyone can see
A lie is so much prettier than me.

Successes overnight, the story's not quite right you know
I keep on pushing on
Scream through every song and show

And when I send my picture, you put it in a frame,
So everyone can see
A lie is so much prettier than me.

You ask me on the phone, when I'm coming home this year
And you don't have to say, you hope that when I do I'll stay
This year.

It may not be the dream I had when I was 17
But it's the path I chose, I'll follow where it goes, you'll see
One day you'll get the picture and you won't need a frame to see
This life is so much prettier to me.
