My Truth


     I couldn't be at home

Fear in the front of my mind

Afriad to be alone

Lost thoughts and time

I sink when I tire

I can no longer swim

Tear apart my heart 

I'm a fool

Blind and dumb to love

You were fake from the start

And now the world knows

The inevitable truth

That while I fall

I'm scared to love you

I keep thinking you will save me

I claim to be happy

But "I'm fine" is a phrase anyone can say

I smile

Not cry

I laugh as I lie

I wish not to hurt you

So I conceal my truth

My truth that I was so madly, insanely in love

In love with you

<p>Not about life, babe. About one sided love. And I chose to believe fate finds our lovers for us, otherwise opposites wouldn&#39;t really attract. ; )</p>
