I'm lost in my own world,

Dreaming of a better life,

I'm vulnerable and weak,

And you're holding the knife...

Always threatening, always there,

The danger never goes,

You control me all the time,

And I'm the only one who knows.

I let you do anything,

And you don't seem to realize,

I'd do anything for you -

Can't you see it in my eyes?

I'd do anything to make you care,

Say anything to help you see,

Be anyone you want because

You don't want the real me.

I can never be perfect,

But for you I'd try,

But no one can be perfect...

Not without a lie.
