Behind the Lie

If there is a trace of pure compassion

In your eyes I cannot see it

If there is love behind that cold exterior

I've yet to feel or sense it here

All the hours passed have been in vain

Let this passion flame out with a toast

To the dark where all our dreams will go to die

'Cause I could not see it, I could not see it

The truth behind the lie

I could not see the truth behind the lie

If there is a line, make it a demarcation

Between our actions and our words

In truth and time, no reconciliation

This severance is now complete

All the hours passed have been in vain

Let this passion flame out with a toast

To the dark where all our dreams will go to die

'Cause I could not see it, I could not see it

The truth behind the lie

I could not see the truth behind the lie

Here at the end

Where time has ceased for us

Here at the end of all we were

This is the end

There's nothing left out here

I now can see behind the lie

All the hours passed have been in vain

Let this passion flame out with a toast

To the dark where all our dreams will go to die

'Cause I could not see it, I could not see it

The truth behind the lie

I could not see the truth behind the lie
