Analysis of Truth Within The Lies
Believe me I’m the best at telling lies,
But trust me when I say I love you.
Stars shift into memories, the ones that lead me to you.
When I tell you I’m happy do you feel my pain,
When I say I want to leave, will you fight for me to stay
I can wear a smile so well with a heart so stained
scars and demons keeping the real me inside ,
Clouded mind always wondering why
Will someone ever see the truth hidden within the lies
