Disguise
what happened to yesterday
when the girl you loved was me
how did everything change
from everything I wanted it to be
how could you leave me behind
in this mess I can't understand
how did I get here
to this nothing, no helping hand
you said you'd always love me
so why aren't you here today
do you ever think of me at all
the way I think of you every day
you said your love was real
and mine was not so pure
so tell me today, oh love
who was the one who was lured
you said it had to end
cause my love I couldn't prove
when you know the real reason
was the fact that you disapproved
of everything that I am
and everything I've ever been
you never really liked me for me
you only liked the surface that could be seen
so today, here I am
left with nothing but your lies
but isn't it pathetic how
I still can't let go of your disguise
I fell for a sweet boy
charming, and handsome, too
his smile was like no other
his eyes, the perfect hue
He was the one that made me happy
like no one else ever could
the one I felt I could trust
who loved me and always would
We could talk for hours and hours
about nothing, and everything all at once
he always knew how to make me laugh
even if he had to act like a dunce
His personality was so perfect
as if he was made for me
we seemed so right and so similar
as if we were meant to be
There was no doubt in my mind,
nothing to predict my demise
I felt like he was the one
just couldn't see through his disguise
by the time I began to see
it was already too late
he'd captivated me body and mind
all i could do was accept my fate
so in love, but miserable
because I thought he was so much more
guess that's what you get when you let
the heart win, a disease without a cure
the worst kind of misery
is the misery you can't be without
that's just what I'd brought onto myself
by letting him in without any doubts
and even now, I can't forget him
cause the image I had is etched in my mind
so I continue to live with the misery
of wanting someone I should leave behind.
