And beneath all the lies, is where I lie for laying down my truths beneath the gold of lies like a swarm of flies covering the bodies of the truth. Turning away all who would reach the glorious truth of me. Lies that grow to hide from what you see is a better side to me, the best that I can be, I have not two sides but three. One part shared 'tween you and me. This I tell you honestly.
And yet to be free like a diamond from the dirt wiped cleaned of all my hurts around my heart. My heart may be stone but I tell you I'm a beauty. Don't throw me away, polish me, and then you'll see. The crude form before you it craves to be seen. Unruly, barbaric, yet hidden, my gleam. Take me now gently, wash me down by the the stream,
Cut down the grime and look to my dream,
Cut through to my heart, all is not what it's seems.
A diamond I am yet I yearn to be fire, emblazoned by your light, you gave me my desire

We danced in the moonlight, our footsteps a gentle hush
By the river's whisper, where shadows play and rush
I wore a mask of laughter, a disguise so bright
But you, my love, saw through the cracks, into the dark of night
You never wore a mask, your face a canvas of truth
A beauty so unflinching, it cut through my youth
I searched for solace in the hiding places of my heart
But you, my love, were the seeker, tearing us apart
For to you, love was a test, a game to be won
A prize to be claimed, a trophy to be shown
But I, my love, was the prize, the one to be sought
A mystery to be unraveled, a heart to be caught
In your eyes, I saw a glimmer of a love so true
But it was a fleeting moment, a spark that flew
For in the end, it was just a game, a play to amuse
Leaving me with just a whisper, a haunting muse
