Lyrics

I knew you the day I met you
By your weak and distant smile
Sweetness on the surface
But behind it, something vile

We all have our ball and chain
In our own private world
But you have built a castle there
Don't you see it, girl

You're living a lie
The truth is hard to find
You are living, living a lie
And there's nowhere to hide

Oh how you try to keep control
You speak so carefully
You think the poison doesn't show
But baby, it's all over me

My heart is growing cold, like yours
I don't even feel the pain
But I just play my part, like you
I've got myself to blame

Cause I'm living a lie
The truth is hard to find
I am living, living a lie
And there's nowhere, nowhere to hide

Ooh, what's wrong with us
How can we go on this way
In a prison of our making
In a deadly masquerade

You know I'm living a lie
I know you're living a lie
Oh, oh baby, the truth is hard to find
Just go on living a lie
We are living, living a lie
And there's nowhere, nowhere to hide
I know you're living a lie
