I spend most of my time Locked away in my room Writing metaphors that could never be As beautiful as you I try to catch your eye With my words But they could never do you justice So I know this'll never work But I keep trying I try to capture your beauty Using only thoughts that come to my mind I know you find it hard to trust me I don't blame you Almost everything I say is a lie I try to twist my own words But I end up just twisting my tongue And though I know it'll hurt I try my hardest to be someone That you could trust And I Wanna make you smile But I don't know how And I Wanna stop lying To your face But I can't get a single truth out Everything I say is a lie

Lies
I spend most of my time Locked away in my room Writing metaphors that could never be As beautiful as you I try to catch your eye With my words But they could never do you justice So I know this'll never work But I keep trying I try to capture your beauty Using only thoughts that come to my mind I know you find it hard to trust me I don't blame you Almost everything I say is a lie I try to twist my own words But I end up just twisting my tongue And though I know it'll hurt I try my hardest to be someone That you could trust And I Wanna make you smile But I don't know how And I Wanna stop lying To your face But I can't get a single truth out Everything I say is a lie
This is about loving someone who only knows lies about you
