Living A Lie
My eyes are cast in shadow
With a heavy head bearing weight
No one has the will to move around
Now I'll fall asleep on my back
Sometimes I don't know where I am
I know I can't recall my nights from days
My bed untouched is the same as my ways
I don't think they will find me soon
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
My face is flying away from me
It's hard to face the stranger in the mirror
When I'm awake I can't perceive the change
This hell was so easy to live
I have to shut my door every night
Because inside I'm frightened to see
So bitter, so unsatisfied but I won't pray
Come clean is so hard, so hard
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
You retrieve what you lost
Because a dawn follows the night
You slip away but come together again
But only if you accept and take away
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
With a heavy head bearing weight
No one has the will to move around
Now I'll fall asleep on my back
Sometimes I don't know where I am
I know I can't recall my nights from days
My bed untouched is the same as my ways
I don't think they will find me soon
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
My face is flying away from me
It's hard to face the stranger in the mirror
When I'm awake I can't perceive the change
This hell was so easy to live
I have to shut my door every night
Because inside I'm frightened to see
So bitter, so unsatisfied but I won't pray
Come clean is so hard, so hard
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
You retrieve what you lost
Because a dawn follows the night
You slip away but come together again
But only if you accept and take away
You can't keep living a lie
Your not compatible with abuse
Wondering whether this is inevitable
Guilty conscious is carrying you on
