I expected to hold on to this masquerade
Who could have guessed, no one could see
Through my painted on disguise?
Even when it shattered, through my own reckless need
I'm left here alone, without a reply.
We're lying through our teeth, it's just so easy
To forget about our lives, just leave this all behind
I never thought you'd unlock the inside
My mask has been broken, and what's beneath?
A different kind of life?
A fool-hearty suggestion, and that's all I need
Another faulty hope to keep me alive.
I cannot show you, just how afraid I am
And if I told you the truth, what would happen then?
Some things I do not want to remember
I'd rather leave them alone, rather live without
Do I have to recall?
These things I never want to talk about
Why would you ask at all?
To the one who broke my heart, I told you so
It doesn't matter what you feel, it matters what you are.
