Skin Deep (Terzanelle)

When gazing deep into your eyes
to see the beauty of your heart
I found the pain of many lies.

The night you tore my soul apart
yet still I cannot deny love
to see the beauty of your heart

What can my mind be thinking of
you left me here with tears that choke
yet still I cannot deny love

As with your friends, you shared the joke
how easy hearts can tear in two
you left me here with tears that choke

For all the things, you made me do
you treated me as worthless dirt
how easy hearts can tear in two

The words you said to make me hurt
when gazing deep into your eyes
you treated me as worthless dirt
I found the pain of many lies.
