Change who you are, change all for me
While I stand here and collect
The last of your autonomy and
All of your last self-respect
You won't notice, you won't see
As I turn my back on you
Four years wasted, all for nothing
And I'll blame it all on you
Forgive me dear
But I did my best for you!
Take a good look at yourself
Can you claim to have done the same?
Shallow, hollow and deluded;
You hide behind your perfect ways
The way you are, it makes me wonder
Did you really ever care?
I did notice, I did see
When you turned your back on me
Four years wasted, I agree
I guess this is all we'll ever be
I gave you all, yes I fought on
While you chose a cowards way
Afraid to see, afraid to hear
That it all came down to you
Down to you...
Down to you...
Take my hand for one last time
Just like we did, when we were young
No-one's perfect, that I know
That goes for all, me and you
I admit, I have my faults
But I choose to learn and grow
So please trust me, face the facts
What you are is but an act
In denial
Refuse to see
In denial
Refuse to hear
In denial
Refuse to learn
In denial
Refuse to grow
In denial
In denial
In denial
In denial
The truth may hurt more than the lie
But you need to wake up now
My departure was your choice
I did not choose to let you go
The truth may hurt you even more
But you can't hide in here forever
The truth may burn you time after time
But you can't avoid the truth forever
Take my hand, for one last time
Just like we did, when we were young
No-one's perfect, that I know
That goes for all, me and you
I admit, I have my faults
But I choose, to learn and grow
So please trust me, face the facts
What you are is but an act
