Underlying lies

I don't feel like I know you
Flawed in trust and in truth your fake excuse.
From the moment that I wake up,
You taste the venom in your tea cup.

As I look out the window
All I see is a deadly row of eyes
With no colour in their makeup.
Many cracks in a mask that hides disgrace.

In the paper there's a headline
"A vicious cloud weighs the sky down tonight".
They forsee a bloody screaming,
In the palms of a man who is seething.

I can smell your fake smile now.
The glue sets on a face you wear proud.
Remind me who the hell you are,
I don't remember ever thinking we were friends.

Spare me your bullshit!
Cracking a smile disguises
All the underlying lies.
They're bursting from your eyes.

You're the traitor with a pounding head,
As you drank another toast to the living dead.
It's not wise to celebrate so soon,
The party's over and you're sweeping up the room.

I'm only glad that I brushed you aside,
Cause I was choking on the dust from your empty mind.
You're full of promises unpaid,
This only serves to remind me you're a fake.
A counterfeit will break...
