I just can't do it, I can't face the pain.
I've lost everything and I can't find a gain.
Tell me I'm wrong,
Tell me you're right,
But I know that I can't...
I can't live a lie.

I've spent so much time trying to keep it inside,
But it's harder to hide from yourself.
I can't make this up, it's just too much to bear,
If I could I'd go back and change it
But I can't.

So tell me I'm evil, tell me I'm a mistake,
Because you're right
But only in your eyes.

I'm not saying to believe me, but please hear me out
I can't live with your standards if I can't live with myself.
Let's make this clear,
I'm not a freak or a creep,
I'm just me.
And I can't live a lie.
