I don't mind you lying to me if one day you see
What you did to me
I don't mind you cursing me if it sets you free
Temporarily
But I just can't spend my future
Living in your past
Life has been a damn good teacher
For those of us who've asked
What if this was all Make-Believe
And we ain’t nothing more than actors playing roles
What if this was all a masquerade
And we chose our fate and we chose our broken souls
What if this was all just a dream
And we woke up clean and everything was beautiful
What if this was all just a test
And when we're laid to rest
We learned that everything was meant to be
I don't mind you stinging me like a bumblebee
One day we'll all agree
I don't mind you kicking dirt, your ego you exert
I know your soul is hurt
But I just can't spend my future
Living in your past
Life has been a damn good teacher
I'm glad I finally asked
What if this was all Make-Believe
And we ain’t nothing more than actors playing roles
What if this was all a masquerade
And we chose our fate and we chose our broken souls
What if this was all just a dream
And we woke up clean and everything was beautiful
What if this was all just a test
And when we're laid to rest
We learned that everything was meant to be
You can say I’m crazy but what the hell are you?
You can say maybe but I don't need more proof
I am just an artist but that's an angel to you
I can feel forever and everything that's true
Maybe you can too
What if this was all Make-Believe
And we ain’t nothing more than actors playing parts
What if this was all a masquerade
And we chose our names and we chose our broken hearts
What if this was all just a dream
But we woke up clean and all we knew was harmony
What if this was all just a gift
And when we opened it
We saw how everything was meant to be
And this was temporary
It’s happening perfectly
Love is what will set us free
