The Liar Inside - Human Drama

We gamble recklessly with trust my love

But is that a game anyone should win?

We sell ourselves for situations

Then dare to be questioned once within

We fear the mask removed will bring us harm

It’s like we’re running from a truth

The only thing that does redeem us

It seems like everyone else is running too

We’ve fallen deep so far inside

Behind the walls we choose to hide

We cannot love we can only feed the liar inside

Our heavy heart died long ago

We shot down truth and claimed we didn’t know

And then we smiled into the face of the liar inside

I’m not my mother’s son

You’re no longer he little girl in daddy’s arms

I pretend to love you so that you’ll love me

You pretend to love me just out of fear

We’ve fallen deep so far inside

Behind the walls we choose to hide

We cannot love we can only feed the liar inside

Our heavy heart died long ago

We shot down truth and claimed we didn’t know

And then we smiled into the face of the liar inside.

The pure soul cannot swim

In a sea of impostors

Redemption forgotten like so many yesterdays

When half of what we say, even we don’t believe

When most of what we feel, we just think we should

Careless words spoken out of order

You can promise a fool anything

We’ve fallen deep so far inside

Behind the walls we choose to hide

We cannot love we can only feed the liar inside

My heavy heart died long ago

We shot down truth and claimed we didn’t know

And then we smiled into the face of the liar inside
