My Life ~ The Living Lie~

I do not know who I am
Who's that in the mirror?
Is that really myself?
I take a step closer
I can't recognize myself
I don't know what I am
The glass shatters on down
My hope slips away like sand.

My mind's looking for something
Something that always slips by
Slips by unnoticed
And what I thought was me is a lie
Leaving my here, alone, to die
Is there a way
To find my peace?
My life is a living lie.

The shards of glass on the floor
Seem to drain out all lights
From within my two eyes
The beast inside me fights
Fights to take control of me
The glass on my wrist bites
As if from the beast's own teeth
And now I have been on the edge of death for many, many nights.

My mind's looking for something
Something that always slips by
Slips by unnoticed
And what I thought was me is a lie
Leaving my here, alone, to die
Is there a way
To find my peace?
My life is a living lie.

I will never see peace
My life is just a lie
The truth of this, stings like teeth
Sharp teeth digging deep into my fragile heart
I just wish I could die.

My mind's looking for something
Something that always slips by
Slips b unnoticed
And what I thought was me is a lie
Leaving my here, alone, to die
Is there a way
To find my peace?
My life is a living lie.
