I bought into a lie because I needed to believe,
Everyone needs a reason to go on, 
Something more than just an unknown unproven God.

The truth is, you're just the ghost of a girl I buried a year ago, 
I tried so hard but in the end, Like in the song,
It doesn't even matter.

I am feeling strangely numb, 
Couldn't find it in me to love what wasn't real, 
So when you walked right out that door,
I found myself smiling, slightly relieved.

You can't deny it so don't even try it, 
No even if you tried that everything is the same inside.
I played along with every song and every rhyme you tried to mime, 
You must have found me quite the fool, but I knew it all along!
You can't fool someone who doesn't want to be fooled, 
You can't play a heart that doesn't want to be played.

Decay is setting in to every word you ever said, 
I'm going back to the shadows to the place that I belong, 
I'll dance among the living and fuck among the dead, 
Something inside me is consuming, 
Changing, confusing what is real, 
Aching for time to stand still, 
And I can't hate you, for you weren't even real.

Six feet under, 
You won't haunt me, 
Memories were meant to fade away.
