A Beautiful Lie
My heart is breaking
How can this be true..
What I thought was real
Was only my view...
You promised me heaven
Yet put me through hell...
I gave you my all
Though this you won't tell...
So now that I see
The truth of these years...
It is best if I go
I must face all my fears...
I let go of my pain
And of this illusion...
To face my reality
Is the only conclusion...
It's hard to imagine
Living life without you...
But I now understand
It's what I have to do...
