Slipping Away
I guess you never lied to me
 But you were never honest
 You’re not who you used to be
 Now you’re like the rest
 You used to be so genuine
 So quick to earn my trust
 Now you got under my skin
 As the past all turns to dust
 
 But why?
 Why’d you have to o and change?
 Why did you become so fake?
 Is it a lie, did you try to hide?
 Is it that terrible being you inside?
 You changed before my very eyes
 And now you cut me down to size
 You’re not real, your heart’s not pure
 I can’t do this to myself, no more
 Things just aren’t the same
 So I’ll let you slip away
 
 You always were a friend to me
 But now you’re someone else
 I wonder if you even see
 It’s putting me through hell
 I can still see who you were before
 Behind your fake disguise
 That gentle soul is now ignored
 And led to it’s demise
 
 But why?
 Why’d you have to o and change?
 Why did you become so fake?
 Is it a lie, did you try to hide?
 Is it that terrible being you inside?
 You changed before my very eyes
 And now you cut me down to size
 You’re not real, your heart’s not pure
 I can’t do this to myself, no more
 Things just aren’t the same
 So I’ll let you slip away
 
 There’s nothing real about you, no
 Is it just a show?
 Or is this cold personality, the look you do
 All that’s left of you?
 
 But why?
 Why’d you have to o and change?
 Why did you become so fake?
 Is it a lie, did you try to hide?
 Is it that terrible being you inside?
 You changed before my very eyes
 And now you cut me down to size
 You’re not real, your heart’s not pure
 I can’t do this to myself, no more
 Things just aren’t the same
 So I’ll let you slip away
