Beautiful lies

You said you'd never leave

you held my heart to keep

and I promised to never look back

and to never shed a tear

to never open up my wounds

nevee to live in fear.

You took my hand and held it tight,

you told me it will be alright 

you promised me a future 

a path that was so bright

 

And I believed it

every single word

never have I ever doubted

that you promised a world.

But my eyes were covered

and so was my mind 

I couldn't see the truth

the one that lay behind

i promised not to look back

but now I'm tracing every rear side

looking into every step I took

to get to this fictious ride

 

I went back to where I started 

back to the very beginning 

all the way down that road

the one almost crumbling 

and now I am thinking

with my uncovered mind

what you were telling was not true

but it was all beautiful lies.
