You mock me
Never showing me your true self
Telling me what you think I want to hear
Lies filling my ears
Tell others how you really feel
Telling all but the one person you need to tell
I tried to build this on trust
Hoping you could feel free to act as you truly are
Instead of putting on a show
I remained true to myself
Showing you my true side
Only to see your mask
Hidden your face is to me
Ashamed to show it knowing I will see the truth
My ways are old to everyone
And misunderstood
I though you would understand that
The mask falls one night
And I see you for your true self
Confronting you
Only to realize how far apart the lies have driven us
A fool I was to believe
