I don't wanna die
But if I could turn it off
I wouldn't mind
Can't say I'd ever try
Don't worry I wouldn't lie
But if I could turn if off
(right now)
I wouldn't mind

I was in love,
Madly in love
Without me realizing it.

The way you blamed,
The way you lied,
The way you betrayed,
Hit me straight up in my heart.

But,
I was told it was my fault.
That I caused this mess.
And I believed it, because
I was madly in love.
I regret falling in love with a person like him.

Standing in the middle of the crossroad
As cars whizzed by,
I thought, wasn’t it so easy to die?
There’s a ton of ways to try,

But none of them were on my mind–
At least I hope they’re somewhere I can’t find.

But not gonna lie,
To tell you honestly,
If I were to die,
I’ll do so nobly.

I can see the cracks on the inside of my porcelain mask





and they want my teeth to show
Confession or discussion?
All I ever chose was confession
For the fact that I lied
That alone was a sin
And when I said ''I love you''
The greatess lie I ever told
But you said ''You can't live without me''
Then why accept his wedding ring?

I think we're all good liars in love
Most people lie a lot just in the name of love

The mind
wants to
know
the truth

But

The heart
can't take
the pain
with it.

there was a smaller voice that said no
that i should have listened to
i wish i listened to
but i chose to believe the greater voice that said yes
because i thought
i had a perfect sense
of the right and wrong
because i trusted what i had been taught to trust
the "bright side"
"it'll be ok"
"things like this take time"
b s .
i  c a l l  b s .
when i look back to what i could have done
i now know
i should have listened to
that voice

I feel like I've been here before.
Not in this place,
But in this state of mind.
Who doesn't lie sometimes?

is it wrong to believe every word
even though i know every word you speak
could very well just be
a trap
created to capture me?

touch my thigh,
make me sigh,
as you ask why,
as i lie
and say "oh, nothing."
