Tell a child lies, tell a child lies
Many years later I still see it all, all that pain inside me, I feel it all, oh, feel it all

It was never stated, it was never said, that I'd be misguided, or I'd be mislead
Tell a child lies, tell a child lies, tell a child lies, oh yeah

In the depths of my soul, the scars remain, the shattered pieces of me, I can't reclaim
Through the haze of the past, I see it clear, but I won't let the darkness define me, I'll won't let fear adhere, I'm Rebuilding from the ashes, day by day, and though I'm broken, I will find my own way

Through the haze of the past, I see it clear, the darkness won't define me, I'll let go of the fear, I'm rebuilding from The ashes, day by day, and though I'm broken, I will find my own way

In a world so cold, where I am lost, I'm caught between reality and what it costs, yeah, yeah
I see the truth, but it's hard to believe, why does she deceive, when honesty is what I need

Now that I am older, age I deny, why would you do it? Tell a child lies, tell a child lies
Sell a child lies, tell a child lies, sell a child lies, tell a child lies, tell a child lies
