The Liar

Tear down my walls and find me
I say that I'm fine, I'm lying
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me

I am a fortress, lock and the key
Holding me hostage where no-one can see
The shadows are stories I've learned not to tell
These walls have all left me a shell of myself

Don't make me beg, prove I'm enough
'Cause I'd rather live dead than ugly love
Don't make me beg, call on my bluff
'Cause I'd rather live dead than ugly love

Tear down my walls and find me
I say that I'm fine, I'm lying
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me
(Someone see through the liar)
(See through the liar in me)

I am a castle, on guard at all times
The ones that I trust did abandon the climb
Don't tell me you're different, just show me a sign
That I'm worth all the effort, too tired to try
(Show me a sign, I'm too tired to try)

Tear down my walls and find me
I say that I'm fine, I'm lying
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me

Life taught me safety is speechless
Asking for help's my weakness
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me

Mangled my mind
(With pictures you take to shove in my face)
Fooled by the guise
(Of trust that disfigured me with the shame)
But I've seen the light
(I'm hiding away and counting the frames)
This mask is staying on
Until you prove it wrong

Tear down my walls and find me
I say that I'm fine, I'm lying
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me

Life taught me safety is speechless
Asking for help's my weakness
Getting so tired of smiling through fire
Someone see through the liar
See through the liar in me
(Someone see through the liar)
(See through the liar in me)
