I Lie
This is a moment of truth
A time to be set free
From the thoughts that resides in me
Am tired of crying myself to sleep
For all the secrets i had to keep
Turning an twisting every night
Everyday was a fight for my life
Pretending that am ok
When am being broken down every day
Thinking suicide half of the time
Putting on a smile
Lying an saying am fine
When am dying inside
Cuts upon risk
Hiding the fact that i do this
Letting all my emotions slide
Pushing it behind
Although its eating me alive
Yes i lie not once or twice
But so many times
Don't want u looking at me a type of way
So i lie saying am okay
