This Lie
All this time,
I've been lying to myself
I'm not OK
And I'll never be
At least not until I stop living this lie
Never did I mean to lose myself
Its just that living a lie was so simple,
So damn easy
I nearly forgot who I was
But I can never leave my past behind
I can hear my ghosts
They're screaming out my name
They won't let me rest
Not until I pay for what I've done to them
Oh, I'm loosing my mind
I can't undo what I've done to myself
All I can do is pray
And hope that someday
I'll break free from these lies
I've been lying to myself
I'm not OK
And I'll never be
At least not until I stop living this lie
Never did I mean to lose myself
Its just that living a lie was so simple,
So damn easy
I nearly forgot who I was
But I can never leave my past behind
I can hear my ghosts
They're screaming out my name
They won't let me rest
Not until I pay for what I've done to them
Oh, I'm loosing my mind
I can't undo what I've done to myself
All I can do is pray
And hope that someday
I'll break free from these lies
