You tell me that you know me
Can you see into my soul?
Behind these eyes are a thousand lies
That hearts cannot control

Words can be a weapon
For those who choose to believe
Behind this mask it's but a simple task
To use words to deceive

Look just a little closer
And tell me what you see
I only show what you think you know
I remain a mystery

Listen to your conscience
It plays into my hand
I'll be to you what you want me to
You think I'm an honest man

You tell me that you know me
Can you see into my soul?
I'll make you cry each time I lie
That truth cannot console
