What Lies Within

It took so long for me to realize
Behavior so obscene was borderline
Evil, the way that it it plays with the heart
Deceitful, I should have known it from the start

But now I see with open eyes
That this disease could bring us down this time

What lies within beneath the skin?
Something so dark and foreboding
It's back again, please don't give in
Release the anger, move on

Heed these words before you are erased
Sick men, they are always on the take
A river of charm that will sway with a smile
Bewildered, just how we fall for their lies

When will we see with open eyes
That this disease brings them down every time?

What lies within beneath the skin?
Something so dark and foreboding
It's back again, please don't give in
Release the anger, move on

Don't give in, just breathe, don't you cross the line
The abuse you feel only magnifies
Don't give in, just breathe, knowing all the while
That you hold the key to your peace of mind

What lies within beneath the skin?
Something so dark and foreboding
It's back again, please don't give in
Release the anger, move on

It never is, so don't pretend
Now comes the time for disowning
It's back again, please don't give in
Release the anger, move on

I should have known it from the start
I should have known it from the start
