Free

Free

Lies 
Upon lies
Upon lies
Everything you say
Everything you do
Is meant to wedge this stake further into my soul
Meant to hurt
Meant to kill
Meant to break as you are broken
But can’t you see?
The only one you hurt is you
Breaking the cord that ties
Breaking the bond of your lies
Finally free as meant to be
Finally safe from the wars you breed
No more lies
Upon lies
Upon lies
No more hurt
No more anger
No more tears
Tears that I had cried on sleepless nights
Tears that damaged the dreaming dreamless nights
Tears that had been cried for lies
I had watched you build this tower
Watched it glimmer in your lies
Watched it glow with lies around it
Watched you hide it all away
Only I have ever seen
The chips and cracks beneath
From only I could you not hide
To only I you could not lie
And now I watch from here on high
As your lies
Upon lies
Upon lies
Frame that glorious tower
Before it falls away
To show me what I still know
But never this chance to say
How I loved you in this heart
And now no world can see
Because I choose to walk away
And save my heart your tears.
