Shadows Behind the Truth

[Intro]
Caught in the shadows of a mirror so clear
Fake smiles hiding all the truth that you fear

[Verse 1]
You preach about faith, about love divine
But behind closed doors, you're crossing the line
Gemmed in your silence, lies tucked away
While your true colors come out and make you stray

[Pre-Chorus]
Pretend to be holy, disguise what you hide
But the truth always finds a way to collide
Actions speak louder than sacred disguise
Can't deny the darkness behind your eyes

[Chorus]
Behind the walls you build so high
You're not who you claim to be inside
Sneaking in shadows, living a lie
Can’t deny the truth, no more disguise

[Verse 2]
A best friend’s love, stolen away
And you wear that guilt like yesterday
Deny it all, still in denial
But the truth remains, it’s all on trial

[Pre-Chorus]
Pretend to be holy, disguise what you hide
But the truth always finds a way to collide
Actions speak louder than sacred disguise
Can't deny the darkness behind your eyes

[Chorus]
Behind the walls you build so high
You're not who you claim to be inside
Sneaking in shadows, living a lie
Can’t deny the truth, no more disguise

[Bridge]
Pictures show what you try to hide
No religion can cover up pride
Facing the mirror, no more games
Truth will burn away the shame

[Outro]
So when the silence finally breaks
And your falsehoods are all that shakes
Remember, honesty can set you free
Or keep you lost in your own decree
