I look at my self
the person in the mirror is asking me
asking me why I lie to myself
what's the meaning of this charade
or the reason why
cause no one knows me quite better than I know myself
but that doesn't stop me from asking myself
the reason why no reason why
we lie to ourselves or anyone else
I look inside my life
cause I can see the things that no one else can see
about the real me
cause it's only the outside
you really see so don't ask me why I keep inside
the things that I choose to hide
still it doesn't stop me from asking myself
it gets me farther behind
cheaters never prosper
I've heard that line
but it keeps me set in my ways |
