Twelve

Sat on the stair, Head in my hands
You asked me now for a smile
See only one, the other lies
This buckled love destroys me

And I realise, For all my life
I kid myself, It's over
Consumed with all, except the truth
I lie to myself, denial...

All on my own, I use the glass
Sustaining echoes in me
The picture falls, a broken frame
Tearing this world I wanted

And I realise, for all my life
I kid myself, it's over
Consumed with all, except the truth
I lie to myself, denial...

That which you gave to me
Now I give to you
What could you take from me?
I saw it all
Death through my eyes
No part of me
Your everything's not enough

I ache inside, splintered in mind
No one saw me crying
I'm wasting away
A milestone in my life
Forgotten...

And I realise, for all my life
I kid myself, it's over
Consumed with all, except the truth
I lie to myself, denial...

I kid myself, it's over

I kid myself, denial...
