Song: Lies I Tell Myself

One of my darker songs. Trying not to see what’s in the mirror, but the truth will out. Or is it true, or is it just another voice?

I never meant to hurt you;
Didn't mean to make you cry. 
I swear that I will do better;
If you give me one more try. 

I was coming off of a bad year;
Had a lot of things on my mind. 
But I feel a new day is dawning;
Gonna leave the past behind. 

These are the lies I tell myself. 
These are three lies I tell myself.

Well I never needed that job anyway;
Waking up early's not my style. 
Gotta take some time to get my head straight;
Just need to rest a little while. 

These are the lies I tell myself. 
These are the lies I tell myself. 

The years go by, 
And I've grown old. 
And I'm still stuck inside my hole. 
No matter how hard, 
I just believe, 
I can't get this ball to roll. 

Well sure there are times I'm disappointed;
But I feel I'm growing every day. 
I think I've finally learned to love myself;
And I know something good will come my way. 

They always told me I was special;
That there was nothing I could not do. 
Someday the world will celebrate me;
And all my dreams will come true. 

These are the lies I tell myself. 
These are the lies I tell myself. 
These are the lies I tell myself. 
These are the lies I tell myself.
