Deceit: Verse 2

You say I'm the best thing

That's ever happened to you.

So why can't I believe

That to be true?

You tell me that I'm

What you dream about.

I hold my breath,

Because I can't breathe out.

Curious,

Why you always lied,

About all the times

You sat and cried.

I honestly

Don't who you are.

You say we're so close,

Why does it feel so far?
