How do I know,
you mean what you say.
How do I know,
if you've even cared anyway.

You use to treat your ex that way,
and that's all I have to say.
I question what your feelings are,
as mine are just pale illusions.

How do I know,
that you're not the same as everyone else.
How do I know,
that they are just lies and tricks.

I feel like I can't believe you,
Yet I want to ever so badly.
Yet the inner voice inside of me,
keeps me chained and won't let me free.

And as a tear falls down my face,
I remember your words.
The beauty of them,
yet they wiped me like swords.

Maybe I'm just paranoid,
I never trust guys.
I always thought they would back stab you,
as they are filled with lies.

But you seemed so different,
I could be myself.
But I'm not sure if you're wearing a mask or not,
and if you'll just leave my heart on a broken shelf.

How do I know,
you will really love me for me,
and not my looks.
How do I know,
That you wont leave me hanging
or betray me behind my back.

Just tell me,
How
   Do
     I
      Know...

You're not the     same
