Lies

You told me so many times
That it is not real
But how can that be
When it’s what I feel

Could it really be true
I’ve been living a lie
All this time
It’s driven me to cry

But no!
I know it is the truth
Things have always been this way
Ever since my youth

I know things were different one time
Back when I was stilling living across that line
But things change, and time moves on
And sometimes things aren’t always fine

You have to see that it’s real
You have to see it’s not fake
Why can’t you see that it’s real?
Can’t you feel the ground shake?

You told me it was a lie
That it was all false
Yet how many times
Did it stop my pulse?

But no!
I know it is the truth
Things have always been this way
Ever since my youth

Don’t tell me that it’s fake
Don’t tell me it’s not real
It’s all that I believe
It’s all that I can feel

I see them standing here
Why you can’t see them I don’t care
But I feel them standing near
I feel the hatred in the air

I still hold the knife
Because they’re coming for me
To give me so much pain
To make me pay my fee

My payment is in blood
It runs the river red
My enormous endless debt
Won’t end until I’m dead

And you try to stop me
You try to take the knife
You say it’s to protect me
But you’re taking my life

You say that it’s not true
You say it is lie
But please don’t do this now.
Please don’t let me die.

But no!
I know it is the truth
Things have always been this way
Ever since my youth

Don’t tell me that it’s fake
Don’t tell me it’s not real
It’s all that I believe
It’s all that I can feel

I see them standing here
Why you can’t see them I don’t care
But I feel them standing near
I feel the hatred in the air

So I keep my grip firm
My hold on the gun.
It’s my only chance,
Without this they’ve won.

And they’ll take me away
Just to have my blood
And they’ll open my vein
Just to see it flood.

So you may think it’s false
And think it is a lie
But I have to survive.
And I’m going to try.
