I can take a deep breath
Always lean on my faith
When hurt overcomes
I can hide my teardrops
Fake a laugh 'til I stop
Feel the pain inside

I can put in a smile
Ditch the truth for a while
Until it expires
I can take it easy
Abandon my gravity
As long as they can’t see

I have learned that a lie
Is another way to survive
Secrets solidified

I have learned that a lie
This prison of mine
Is nothing but a silent vow
So hush

All I ever wanted
Elegantly wasted
Vanished in my mouth
Sparks of light for rescue
When I think about you
Makes me dare to try

I have learned that a lie
It’s somehow my way to survive
Secrets solidified

I have learned that a lie
It's such a wrong way to survive
Feeling undignified

Wouldn't you, please, free me from
This prison of mine
Help me break this silent vow
'Cause I have something to tell
But hush
