I am no man without this mask

Naked before the spotlight

Your passion was worth the wait

You always said you'd calm

My fears and my desires

You said the truth was in you

Tt finally took me two whole years

To find the truth was nothing

I racked myself to find the room with no clear path

What wasted time, what wasted emotions

Forgiveness seems weary

When the loved beg into your eyes

You turned around and walked away

I saw him there, and you said nothing

But yet I stayed, bound by my convictions

Tell me this poison that leeches away at my sanity

I soaked myself in your every word, your every lie

Let us dream away and see

Tomorrow has already come and gone

Smile for me, smiles are forever

Is what you always told me

Let us write this love song upon your lies

Smile for me now
