The Liar

Welcome my friend
It's good to see you again
I thought I might have left you for dead
Once you'd gone I thought "it's so good my friend, that to steal it all from you seemed like the best end"

I am not a murderer
I have nothing that you did not offer
I am not a thief or liar
There is nothing here that you did not offer
To me, to me

I saw you bend
I saw you break
Watched you fall
They all laughed and stared with scorn
Once you’d gone I thought that I would take it all
Seemed like a shame to let it all crumble and fall

You were my hope
My fears, my trials
My youth's desires
And you went and left me

You just fucking left me here

I am not a murderer
I have nothing that you did not offer
I am not a thief or liar
There is nothing here that you did not offer
To me, to me

These years have been good to me
I've devoured all you've loved and all you've been
From your eyes I won't hide what I've seen
In this place I have created clean

I have seen the great denial
Put this past
Again on trial

Found my memory
Still complying
With these visions

I am not a murderer
I am all that is left to wonder
Why we’re standing here together
On the edge of silence
