Oh! The terrible lie...

Woke up this morning
Trying hard to hide my melancholy
I've joined you for breakfast
And we continued our lie...

Every day it's similar
You are so cheery
And so am I
Oh! our terrible lie..

I do wish sometimes
As I leave for work sullenly
Dreading the day already
Weeping far within...

The lie, terrible and unending
Would cease to be
And I would know the real you
And the real me...
