Inhale Your Lies
Bending, breaking
My heart stops
They say I’ll be OK
They also say that I miss you
Which is true?
Smiling, laughing
My heart beats
They say I’m funny
They also say I have no humor
Which is true?
Hiding, crying
My heart freezes
They say I’m beautiful
They also say I have no looks
Which is true?
I’ll inhale your lies
As you praise me
As you break me
I’ll smile and cry
And you won’t even look
The girl in the dress?
She’s so gone
She left the moment she saw you
She ran away, like history
And she will never run back
I’ll inhale your lies
As I sit and write
I’m so tired
I write so loud
Why don’t you hear?
Lie to me, cry to me
You seem to love doing both
Read my lips
The joke is on you
I’ll inhale your lies
As I shatter
As I break
As I bend
Locked in myself
I’m not a princess
Don’t rescue what isn’t yours
Just leave me here, chained
As I slowly wither away
Like autumn leaves
On frozen streets
I hate reality
Let me inhale your lies
