I hide in the dark
So you dont see my face
See the truth that lies in my eyes
That i know you lied

The day you lied about the girl
Is the day you lost this girl
The girl who loved you
No matter what
Through the anger and the pain
Smiled when i knew you lied again

I tried to laugh it off
The day i saw you with her
So came home and cried
And stayed in the dark
Till you came home
To ask for the truth
That never came

So i walk out the door
Hoped to be stopped
But your hand never came
Near mine again
Now you call her name
Instead of mine

Still in the dark
While i wait in line
Watching the days go by
Forever hoping for the truth
That will never come by

I hide the real me
So i am liked
I hide my past
So noone knows


I live a second life
One in the shadows
One in everyones eyes
The one every believes i am
The one everyone comes to  
The one who really needs the help
That hides in the dark

I am happy
Thats what we say
When we really want to cry
We laugh we joke
But you'll never know
Who i really am
Staying in the shadows
Is were i belong

You may of treat me like a princess
But really you kept me prisoner
Away from the loved ones you knew saw through you
The ones who would of healled the bruises you left
Instead you hide me from the real life for yourself
Until the day i saw light
Saw the truth
And showed you the door
With one last bruise you give me
I realise i am better
Releasing myself into the world
Saying hello without looking over my shoulder
Thats the life i lived
Now im free and myself

— The End —
