Pitiful

Deception, a guise

A daily worn disguise

A stumble, a fall

When all you sell are lies

The love, the hate

A simple twist of fate

The envy, the greed

From the one who will mislead

This has taken over me

It feels wonderful then low

But this is how the story goes

It's so pitiful, I know

The masquerade

The me who's on display

Reflections, I see

Who is staring back at me?

Smiles disappear

When joy gives way to fear

And when fear leads to rage

This mask becomes my cage

This has taken over me

It feels wonderful then low

But this is how the story goes

It's so pitiful, I know

So pitiful

This has taken over me

It feels wonderful then low

But this is how the story goes

It's so pitiful, I know

This has taken over me

It feels wonderful then low

But this is how the story goes

It's so pitiful, I know
