A Beautiful Lie

In the beginning I didn’t think it would be this hard
Be this difficult to have someone to hold so close to my heart
But love has hurt me in so many ways
What’s there to believe when they say love is so true?
It sets your soul on fire no matter what you do
Love is just a lie we are told before we sleep
A fairytale so a parent’s child won’t weep
So they can find “Mr. Right”
Have someone to hold in those cold and lonely nights
That love isn’t true
It will never be
There won’t be no wedding bells or a kiss under the mistletoe
Won’t be someone there when those nights get cold
Love is just a comforting lie
A false dream that is told to believers with love self esteem
Who think they’ll find “Mr. Right”
That he will love them no matter what they look like
We know that isn’t true
Not in this day and age
You have to be plastic in order to get engaged
To have a fake smile and a silicone chest
Something surgically done so it can impress
But really what good will it do?
Give you someone who will be there when you’re in the mood
I believe there’s no love
No one can love me
There will never be someone there to hold and console me
I can’t live this false dream and walk the shadows of all those Barbie’s and
Ken’s
I can’t have that Hollywood smile and just pretend
So let others live with this comfort of this beautiful lie
Well I know the truth and all love did was kill me inside
