Lie To Me

I see the gears in your mind 
begin to turn and the look on 
your face slowly switch, 
So I want you to lie to me and 
tell me how your fine an it's 
just a twitch. 
 I see the look in your eyes 
slowly start to fade and your 
body slowly shift, 
So once again tell me lies and 
tell me your ok, your not 
feeling well, and it's only an 
itch. 
Lie to me the way I've been  
lying to myself everyday,
Look the other way and say its 
for the best and how love will 
somehow find a way. 
Toss and turn and dream of the 
empty space that occupies your 
heart, 
Wonder in your mind and loose 
yourself in memory lane and 
daydream of a fresh start. 
Conjure up a place where we 
were once happy and in love 
knowing that its real, 
Talk to me in tongues with 
subliminal messages hidden 
behind the lies, 
Rip through my flesh with 
words and melodies and let me 
read between the lines. 
Touch me once again and 
watch me drift into my fantasy; 
Where we are the same people 
we once remembered.
Lie to me like I'll lie to you.... 
Tell me you don't miss me, you 
don't love me, your done with 
this part of your life, that your 
done waiting for the old me, 
and the illusion has faded of 
making me your wife.
Tell me I'm nothing a nobody in 
your eyes, 
Stare into my eyes look into my 
soul and tell me more lies.
Tell me you don't hear the faint 
sounds of our happiness & 
wedding bells, 
Lie to me so I can lie to you..... 
Let's keep fooling ourselves
