Lies
My head is filled with lies of others
My heart is losing its truth
I’m alone to deal being upset
Trying to differentiate what’s right and wrong
They lie to me and I’m told to drop my “act”
They keep winning and I keep losing
Being steered the wrong way
And wonder when I lose my path
Dropped into ice cold waves of deceit
Being told the world isn’t fair, stand up straight
They do me wrong
I need to let it go
They lie and I have to take it
They’re destroying my world
Not caring if I get hurt...
I need to get away from it all
To a place known by none
Just drop the ball and quit the game
They break me like a hurricane
Crack me like a piece of glass
Look at me like I don’t matter
Treat me as if I don’t deserve the truth
