All a lie

I kept telling myself, that the look in those eyes was a lie, it was all a lie

I kept telling myself, the warmth in the embrace was a lie, it was all a lie 

I kept telling myself, the honesty in the voice was an act, another lie, it was all a lie 

But something inside me said, the ending of it all, that was a dream, a lie, that was the biggest lie 

The fairy-tale had ended, there was no happily ever after 

The credits had rolled and the show was over 

The hall was empty and all had left except me 

Who sat there in hopeless faith to see more in the darkness that hovered
