Why hide behind your lies?
If the truth will eventually come out
Why Love?
If you know your going to end up hurt
Why pretend you don’t care?
If you know you do
Why fight?
If sooner or later you’ll make up
Why pretend your some one else?
If you know that your not and you know who you really are
Why?
Why why why ?
WHY?
