a silent betrayal

i'm all i'll ever be

so why do you still try to change me?

i know you're not quite as you seem

burried in layers of denile

you are less of the man of my dreams

you fake it, and pretend everything is okay on the outside

but when we're alone, i see what no one sees

i see the realness, i see how you've lied

i wish you were what i thought you were

because deep down i know he's in there somewhere

are you dissapointed in me?

do you wish i were someone else?

i can see it in your eyes.

you aren't thiking of me

i can read through all of your lies

you only fake yourself with that disguise

although you've done nothing

i can't help but feel betrayed

knowing at night you aren't thinking of me

Jeez - troo feelings in this one - I read between the lines. Change is one of those inevitable things.
