Living a Lie

She's seen things no one should see,
she's been the person no one should have to be,
she looked through the eyes of a beast,
and asked herself,
"When did this become me?",
known secrets that could change the course of fate,
feeling like everything has faded away,
and wonders to herself,
when does love become hate,
she tries to hide her sadness,
and put on a happy face,
and each and every day,
she feels a little bit of herself slip away,
so how much longer,
can you live a lie
and each day it's harder,
to keep the secrets locked inside
