It’s easy to lie to those you are around that never truly see you.
It may feel not right but it’s easy.
It’s easy to do what you need to do, to live to thrive.
I don’t know how I would tell you the truth about me anymore…

I never did think that you would believe me.
I never thought you would believe my biggest lie yet…
The lie where I say I’m fine, I’m alright, I’m happy…
You believed them.
Yet every other lie I told you sometimes even the truth you barely believed or you never believed…

I lie to everyone around me.
Though sometimes the truth does slip through my mouth.
You however never seem to notice.
You brush it off like it’s nothing.
You turn your head the other way.
You walk away and don’t look back…
