Fake

I can feel the static in your silence, oh it cuts me deep,

Every shadow in your eyes is a secret you can’t keep.

Whispered promises unravel, slipping through the cracks,

You’re a ghost beneath my skin, and I can’t bring you back.

We’re a house of mirrors, reflections don't align,

Twisted truth or fiction—I’m toeing the thin line.

If you’re living for the thrill of a lie,

Don't you dare look me in the eye.

Every tear that you fake, every vow that you break,

I’ll be haunting your world like the night.

Every breadcrumb trail you leave is a game I refuse to play,

But the echoes of your laughter keep calling me to stay.

I’m a storm you can’t control, and you’re playing with my fire,

Caught between your venom and the depths of my desire.

The clock is ticking louder, your sins are crawling in,

You wear a smile so wicked, but it’s cracking from within.

If your heart’s a battleground, there’s no truce to be found,

We’re just dancing with the shadows, ‘til the daylight drowns.
