Who knew that the truth
Would hurt me so much
I thought it was you
Who could show me love
I guess that I'm wrong
I can't stand this life
Eluded myself
With my own damn lies

I just can't believe
I could be so naive
Gave myself false hope
Truth hit like a stone

Now I'm tumbling down
Down the mountain of lies
That I really piled up
Now I'm plummeting down
Down my mountain of lies
All the lies I packed up
Just to act like I'm loved

Who knew that I could
Hurt myself so much
I thought that I could
Show myself some love
But this time it's mine
The fault is still mine
Eluded myself
with my own damn lies

I just can't believe
I could be so naive
Gave myself false hope
The ball just hit home

Now I'm tumbling down
Down the mountain of lies
That I really piled up
Now I'm plummeting down
Down my mountain of lies
All the lies I packed up
Just to act like I'm loved

I did it because I needed a way
To love who I am I want you to stay
But now I realized I don't need no one
To tell me I'm great cause I know my fate

It just didn't fit
I didn't need it
I pushed myself down
This mountain of lies

Now I'm tumbling down
Down the mountain of lies
That I really piled up
Now I'm plummeting down
Down my mountain of lies
All the lies I packed up
Just to act like I'm loved

But next time I'll wait
And show some restraint
Control my feelings
So I stop falling
Down from the skies
Down my mountain of lies


The author's comments:
I kept falling for the wrong person, and then blame myself for eluding myself with the lie that the person actually loved me, when in reality, that person never did.
