It hurts so much that I could cry-- I could die asking "why" was it all a lie? You had my heart inside your hand, yet demand to leave a brand for my soul's command? I danced foolishly to your song while all along it was wrong; now caught in pain's throng... You held my gaze, so hypnotized, my demise by your lies I never hypothesized. Yet you can say you're not to blame for your game that profaned my heart, now defamed? Somehow you say: "Why can't you see, it can't be-- will never be.", after deceiving me? Why would you play such a facade? No laud for such fraud, your judgement was flawed... Tell me why I cannot be mad, not glad, and so sad-- does that make me bad? Why? I don't understand, what I've done wrong to deserve only your guise, my shame, and this mute plea; now crushed in your wicked maw, left lonesome and mad...

Lies
It hurts so much that I could cry-- I could die asking "why" was it all a lie? You had my heart inside your hand, yet demand to leave a brand for my soul's command?
