We gamble recklessly with trust my love But is that a game anyone should win? We sell ourselves for situations Then dare to be questioned once within We fear the mask removed will bring us harm It's like we're running from a truth The only thing that does redeem us It seems like everyone else is running too... We've fallen deep so far inside Behind the walls we choose to hide We cannot love we can only feed the liar inside... Our heavy heart died long ago We shot down truth and claimed we didn't know And then we smiled into the face of the liar inside I'm not my mother's son You're no longer he little girl in daddy's arms I pretend to love you so that you'll love me You pretend to love me just out of fear We've fallen deep so far inside Behind the walls we choose to hide We cannot love we can only feed the liar inside... Our heavy heart died long ago We shot down truth and claimed we didn't know And then we smiled into the face of the liar inside. The pure soul cannot swim In a sea of impostors Redemption forgotten like so many yesterdays When half of what we say, even we don't believe When most of what we feel, we just think we should Careless words spoken out of order You can promise a fool anything
