Am I losing my mind
Am I losing my way
I turn my head
I must look away
Can I keep living a lie
When I know truth
I need your love, I beg of you
Should I feel dismay
When other girls catch your eye
I can’t have your heart
If I don’t have your mind
You go astray
I pretend not to know
How can this go on
I must let you go
It kills me to go down this road
I get left all alone
In this house we built made of glass
We tried to paint it gold
So beautiful on the outside
This house of lies
Now it feels like a tomb
The lies have been so strong
Now we are stuck here
Wondering where we went wrong
Living in a house of gold
So beautiful and cold
