Turned into Lies

When we meet you were so bright
An angel that had stepped into light
The promise of joy you wore as a smile
The light of your gaze made all worthwhile

I watched you change into lies
I turned away, and you were all lies
It’s like you were never
Never alive

Now your façade has cracked and fell
The truth of you shows through the shell
Finely woven from a fabric of lies
Deceit and betrayal doth cloud thine eyes

I watched you change into lies
I turned away, and you were all lies
It’s like you were never
Never alive

Right from the start you didn’t exist
Now you’re exposed you fade like a mist
Nothing more than a once hopeful dream
Back once more into life’s swift stream

I watched you change into lies
I turned away, and you were all lies
It’s like you were never
Never alive

Now I’m left with a head full of pain
Because my memories drive me insane
The joy of the years tainted and fake
Litter my past with its black frothy wake
