Your charming words
hold heavy lies
You say you are not in disguise
Is that another lie?
I laugh-
at my own despair
Realizing that you are not there
It is your disguise
I am your prize
It's too late to turn back
I am caught in your trap
I fall into your lair
and you swear that you are there
But are you...?
