Built on Lies

A haunting reflection on love built on illusion, where desire, jealousy, and deception blur the truth. As memories resurface, the narrator confronts the emptiness behind passion, urging acceptance of what was never real. "Built on Lies" I picture you after a long, long day Heels off, makeup starts to fade away Sitting there with your thoughts alone In a place we used to call our own Maybe something brings you back to me A song, a word, a memory But I don’t want you missing what we had Just remember it was all so bad Yeah I crossed the world to see your face But I built it all on fake escape Every mile, every truth I bent Just to chase what never meant I hope when you think of me You don’t feel love, just honesty That everything I made you see Was just a lie to set me free No fairytale, no destiny Just broken truths and jealousy So if my name comes back again Remember how it had to end Do you remember that late night call? When you said his name, said it all Tried to laugh, said it slipped your mind But I saw the truth you tried to hide You didn’t choose me from the start I was just another part Till you saw me face to face Then I took his place You said I was everything you need But I was just a better scene You saw youth, you saw gold Not a heart you could hold I hope when you think of me You don’t feel love, just honesty That everything I made you see Was just a lie to set me free No fairytale, no destiny Just broken truths and jealousy So if my name comes back again Remember how it had to end Yeah, I was younger, I was shining Money talks, and you were listening He was older, far away Just a ghost you couldn’t stay And I played the perfect role Till the cracks began to show Now the truth is all that’s left Of a love we never kept Was it me… or what I had? Was it love… or just a plan? So when you're tired late at night And something pulls you to my side Don’t romanticize the pain Or try to love me back again Just remember every lie That brought me there into your life And let the truth be what remains We were never more than games Yeah… If you think of me at all Let the lies be what you recall… Tutti i diritti relativi alla musica, ai testi, ai contenuti audio, video, grafica e a qualsiasi altro materiale presente sono riservati e protetti dalle normative vigenti in materia di diritto d’autore.
