Second Face

Mind, body, and soul
 I gave to you
 But under your pale skin
 I could see it all
 Now we pass each other like strangers
 When I would have stood toe to toe with gods
 For you
 I was naive to everything
 I would've given it all
 But I've seen your second face
 Can't play the role of the pawn
 Every ounce, every ounce of faith
 That I poured into you
 I should've known all along
 But I just played the fool
 Count every second of every minute
 Time wasted building up a hatred
 Chose to ignore the truth
 Refused to face it
 Hanging by the tips of fingers
 For too long I let it linger
 I should've cut the rope
 But I chose to live and suffer
 When I should've just run for cover
 Braved the storm
 But it never stopped
 I count every second of every minute
 Time wasted building up a hatred
 Chose to ignore the truth
 Refused to face it
 Chose to ignore the truth
 Though I knew all along
 Held on for my life
 'fraid to take, 'fraid to take the fall
