Built on Lies

Built on Lies
Verse 1:
I thought we were solid, built on trust and care,
But now I see the cracks, they were always there.
You whispered sweet words, I believed every sound,
But you were digging tunnels beneath the ground.
I gave you my heart, I gave you my all,
But now I realize you were never really involved.
I thought we were standing on something so strong,
But the truth is clear now, I was holding on too long.
Pre-Chorus:
You painted a picture, so perfect, so bright,
But it was all just a shadow hiding the fight.
You built a house, but you built it on sand,
And now it’s falling down, slipping through my hands.
Chorus:
We were built on lies, not the love we thought we knew,
You twisted the truth and made me believe in you.
The foundation was fake, the walls all cracked,
Now I’m standing here with nothing but the facts.
We were built on lies, a house made of lies,
Now the roof is caving, and I see through your disguise.
You tore me down, but I’ll rebuild the truth,
I won’t be fooled by the lies you used.
Verse 2:
I gave you my trust, I gave you my dreams,
But now I know you were only feeding me schemes.
You told me forever, you promised me more,
But now I see you were only keeping score.
The love you showed me was a hollow disguise,
A mask that hid all of your alibis.
I thought we were strong, thought we could survive,
But it’s clear now, we were never alive.
Pre-Chorus:
You painted a picture, so perfect, so bright,
But it was all just a shadow hiding the fight.
You built a house, but you built it on sand,
And now it’s falling down, slipping through my hands.
Chorus:
We were built on lies, not the love we thought we knew,
You twisted the truth and made me believe in you.
The foundation was fake, the walls all cracked,
Now I’m standing here with nothing but the facts.
We were built on lies, a house made of lies,
Now the roof is caving, and I see through your disguise.
You tore me down, but I’ll rebuild the truth,
I won’t be fooled by the lies you used.
Bridge:
I’m done with the fake, I’m done with the games,
I won’t be the one you keep to blame.
The walls are falling, the floor is cracked,
But I’ll walk away, never looking back.
You can keep your lies, you can keep your pride,
But I’m rebuilding myself, leaving you behind.
Chorus:
We were built on lies, not the love we thought we knew,
You twisted the truth and made me believe in you.
The foundation was fake, the walls all cracked,
Now I’m standing here with nothing but the facts.
We were built on lies, a house made of lies,
Now the roof is caving, and I see through your disguise.
You tore me down, but I’ll rebuild the truth,
I won’t be fooled by the lies you used.
Outro:
We were built on lies, but now I’m free,
I’ve seen through the walls, and it’s clear to me.
The lies are gone, but I’ll stand tall,
I’m rebuilding my heart, I’m reclaiming it all.
