Deceiver

For long
I have been hiding;
and all the pain I hold within
sends shivers down my spine.
For long
I have been waiting
for a reason to arise,
was it all a waste of time?

I am not who you think I am,
soon I´ll be letting you down.
I am not who you think I am,
I´m everywhere.

You think
I have been lying,
there are secrets
that lie frozen in my silent stare.
If you go through my fears
you will see I´ve lost control,
all the faith I had is gone.

Step back,
watch me closely;
as my crimson wings unfold
you´ll see me as I am
I know, it won´t be easy,
but in the end you´ll understand
my instinctive need to fly.
