A True Lie

Fragments of my grace that I had willingly thrown.
Trying to hide behind this fake smile that I had sewn.
Killing my conscience when it kept striking by.
For all these years, I have been living a big lie.

A lie that I created,
Thinking it won't be a big deal.
Never keeping facts and fiction seperated.
Dying to make it look somehow real.

A lie that I've held on too strong,
Too much more than my will could ever allow.
A lie I've stretched on for too long,
That its somehow become the truth now.

But no more am I able to play this part,
That has turned me stranger to my own eyes.
No more am I able to carry this heavy secret to heart.
That has made me living a life full of lies.

But I guess this is the way things are gonna be.
Living the lie as if it were true.
The lie you consider to be a mystery.
The truth I've so long kept away from you.

Still not gonna tell me what the secret is? :P
The 2nd stanza's brilliant :D

This one's great, too:
"A lie I've stretched on for too long,
That its somehow become the truth now."

And hey! There isn't such thing as a block that would last forever, so why don't you start kicking its ass right now? :P
I know you can.
