Charade

(álbum: Amanda Falk - 2006)

Another day, paints on the face
That they expect to see
It's not all I want, but it's all I've got
To make this world believe
Nothing's wrong with me
I'm an artist of emotion
A master of deceit
And the many faces I portray
Are nothing at all like me
How I long to be free

From this never ending maze
Oh my head's in a daze
Every time I think
From this overplayed charade
Oh my heart's gonna fade
And I can't go on

It's a tug of war, each moment
To hide this pain inside
Or to open up and spill this cup
Of feelings that I hide
But what will people do
And what will people say
When they hear the truth will they turn and run away
Will they throw a stone or lend a shoulder to lean on

From this never ending maze
Oh my head's in a daze
Every time I think
From this overplayed charade
Oh my heart's gonna fade
And I can't go on

It's not fair, I can't take this anymore
All these tears have drifted me to shore
Is there hope for someone just like me
And I hear a voice inside me say
I can set you free

From this never ending maze
I will be your strength
If you let me lead
So just, take my hand and see
If you follow me
You can be free
