you read me
like a cheap novel
everytime
but i lie
right to your face
don't know why
because it's easier
or maybe i'm saying "nothing"
to make myself believe it
i lie because i want to look strong
like i can handle it all
balance it all
with a smile on my face
to hide
i know already
you won't be able to take it
it is tough to let people know the real you even if you think they won't like it. or maybe that's not what you mean...
