Portrait of Dorian Grey Lyrics by WILLA

I Dare You

2009

[Verse 1]
It was a night
You could cut with a knife
It was the thrill of the chase
Mm, a thief in a silk suit
My love, you were such a disgrace
[Verse 2]
I wonder why
The things that you've done
Haven't cut any lines in your face?
Maybe Oscar Wilde
Wasn't as crazy as they say
[Chorus]
If I crept into your attic
Would I find hidden away
An old masterpiece once as tempting as you
Changing with each passing day?
And though you're still beautiful
Somewhere upstairs
Weeping and withered away
Must lie the remains of what once was your heart
Like the portrait of Dorian Gray
[Verse 3]
Magnificent liеs
Could not be disguised
By your finest Parisian colognе
Ooh didn't we dance through them all
With such elegant grace?
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 4]
Your deafening smile
It kept me beguiled
'Til I took that walk in the snow
Oh, I own these mistakes
But I loved you for Heaven's sake
[Chorus]
If I crept into your attic, oh
Would I find hidden away
An old masterpiece once as tempting as you
Changing with each passing day?
And though you're still beautiful
Somewhere upstairs
Weeping and withered away
Must lie the remains of what once was your heart
Like the portrait of Dorian Gray
[Outro]
Must lie the remains of what once was your heart
Like the portrait of Dorian Gray
Must lie the remains of what once was your heart
Like the portrait of Dorian Gray
