It’s easy to live in denial of who you really are inside
especially when the truth is something you try to hide
to most you seem to be something that you are not at all
always on the edge waiting for the fall
Denial works so much better than the truth it seems
working ever harder to keep up all the schemes
difficult to keep up with what lies you have told to who
making sure they never really know the true you
Living in denial until it becomes the only reality you know
and then it becomes the only thing you show
you live it until you believe it and forget that it’s a lie
and then you couldn’t find the truth no matter how hard you try
In denial it’s so much easier to pretend that it’s all good inside
becomes second nature until you forget what you were trying to hide
but eventually the truth is out it always finds its way
and then denial is the only thing you will have left to say
