Perception-do you see me?
I don't think you do
It's so easy to fake through everything that you think I want to do
Rationalization-does it make sense?
No it doesn't
You're supposed to be my mother
The one who knows me best
But I guess when it comes down to it
You'll never pass the test
Deception-why did you do it?
Why do you do it?
Why do you mix the truth within the coven of your easily-broken lies?
Don't you realize already?
I can see through your state of mind
