Web of Deceit
I don't want to live one more year in another lie,
telling you I care when I know it's a lie
I need to set you free so your heart can find its home
I don't want to keep this ring and betray my soul
I don't want to live in this web of deceit trapped in a life of dishonesty
I am lying to you and breaking my own heart
I don't love you anymore, not for a while now
I don't want to hurt you but I don't want to lie to you
I am in a tangled web hoping this confusion will end
No one knows how painful this is, I am lying to my friend
I don't know why the passion has ended but my heart refuses to love you again
I keep praying for an open-door, hate living in a wall built with lies
love fades only lies remain
