I saw you hiding behind your own lies

You were always good with words, but never spoke the truth
Leaving spaces for me to fill in the blanks
I believed in every single one, thinking they were sincere
But now I see you were playing all along
You made me think we were headed somewhere
While you didn’t even know where you wanted to go

You left me waiting, as if the answer was right on the tip of my tongue
But deep down, I knew you were never really mine
And now here we are, talking about something that never existed
About a future you invented just to watch me try to rebuild

I saw you hiding behind your own lies
(Everything you hid, you never showed me)
I held onto the parts of you that felt real
(Real, but they never lasted)
But they vanished so quickly, like magic
(Disappeared in the air, so fast)
Ohh, everything vanished, leaving nothing behind
(Leaving nothing, leaving nothing)
I tried to believe, but it was all in vain
(It was all in vain, so in vain)

I tried to embrace your pieces, but now I see you were never whole
Did you know from the start that you would never stay?
Now, being honest, I realize it was never about us
You were always the number one player in your own game

You left me waiting, as if the answer was right on the tip of my tongue
But deep down, I knew you were never really mine
And now here we are, talking about something that never existed
About a future you invented just to watch me try to rebuild

I saw you hiding behind your own lies
(Everything you hid, you never showed me)
I held onto the parts of you that felt real
(Real, but they never lasted)
But they vanished so quickly, like magic
(Disappeared in the air, so fast)
Ohh, everything vanished, leaving nothing behind
(Leaving nothing, leaving nothing)
I tried to believe, but it was all in vain
(It was all in vain, so in vain)

I look in the mirror and finally see who I was before you
Now all your fantasies crumble like the promises you never kept
The silence between us says more than you ever could
(You speak, but I hear nothing at all)

Ohh, I saw you hiding behind your own lies
(Everything you hid, you never showed me)
I held onto the parts of you that felt real
(Real, but they never lasted)
But they vanished so quickly, like magic
(Disappeared in the air, so fast)
Ohh, everything vanished, leaving nothing behind
(Leaving nothing, leaving nothing)
I tried to believe, but it was all in vain
(It was all in vain, so in vain)
(In the end, in the end)
In the end, it was all part of your fantasy
Chasing what you wanted, only to let go when you could
(In the end, in the end)
In the end, it was all part of your fantasy
Chasing what you wanted, only to let go when you could
(In the end, in the end)
