You didn't know me!
(I know myself!)
I turned a lie!
(Into something I could convince my mind it was so real!)
You didn't know me!
(I know myself!)
I'm a liar
I know
'Cuz i caught myself in the act
It was my had
Holding the knife
In my back
And all the time you knew me
You wanted to trick myself babe
You didn't know me!
(I know myself!)
I turned a lie!
(Into something I could convince my mind it was so real!)
I'm not best at what I do!
I let you play me like you do!
Create my closest enemy
(Self-destructive decision)
'Cuz I'm convinced I'm innocent
I'm a phony
But I didn't know
So I saw the mask
And I did not see the mask
Till i took it off
And it was in my hand
To conform
Is the simplest
But coward to the old face he wore
Everything
I did
And everything I was
An eclipse of the truth
In remiss I refuge in your Trust
And your repentance heals it
My truth won't reveal who I was
You didn't know me!
(I know myself!)
I turned a lie!
(Into something i could convince my mind it was so real)
I am not best at what i do!
I let you play me like i do!
Create my own worst enemy
(Self-destructive decision)
'Cuz I'm convinced I'm innocent!
*guitar break*
Nothing hurts like the triumph
Of a man against himself
Its the sting of awakening
By the mercifully lain pains of Hell
The good I am I am because i have a motive that is bad!
(What I am is because of the one I can't have!)
The first of me is cursed when it gets turned into the seed
So how can i find honesty
When all is bent on destroying me
When I'm relieved I'll go to death
You must know death!
To know me
I know myself
I turned a lie
Into something i could convince my mind it was so real
YOU DIDNT KNOW ME!
(I know myself)
I turned a lie
Into something I could convince my mind it was so real
I am not best at what i do!
I let you play me like i do!
Create my closest enemy
(Self-destructive decision)
'Cuz I'm convinced I'm innocent!
Once you are done you better Trust in me!
