The Truth Is I lie

Sometimes, your mind gets tight

Because of too much self-pride

You defend the "Myself" you have built

Then honest men feel offended

If I could say "That is right", but I

Can't tell you what I hide

Protecting harmony and love

I can do nothing but lie

The man you see is not the one you know

And my words could strike your mind

If there is joy, it is in vain

All of you goes away (away from me)

Why have I to link love and lie?

Just 'cause I cannot hear your cries

**The truth is I lie**, and I'm going nowhere

And it seems like broken links

**The truth is I lie**, and I'm going nowhere

And it seems like breaking me

Sometimes I ask myself what would've happened

If you learned who I really am and what I do

But I can be absolutely sure that your reaction

Wouldn't be good —

It would only be wrath, even fight

I spent my time lying to myself

Can't begin to discern the sense from the nonsense

You see an angel in me

But I'm worse than those who pull our strings

I am not even sure if I deserve your love anymore

Don't you know who I am?

Don't you see anything?

Secrets will follow me to the grave

I play a part, but I often feel ashamed

I've said to myself: "Climb this wall and be brave."

If there is joy, it is in vain

All of you goes away (away from me)

Why have I to link love and lie?

Just 'cause I cannot hear your cries

**The truth is I lie**, and I'm going nowhere

And it seems like broken links

**The truth is I lie**, and I'm going nowhere

And it seems like breaking me
