Storyteller

Holding my breath
As I patiently wait
What could come next?
You turned on a light
In my gullible mind
I let you inside
Just like a child
Imagining what could be
I let it run wild
I was naive,
It's too good to be true
Still I believed...

You told me
What I wanted to hear
Your words paint pictures so sincere
Well some things
Aren't as they appear
The fantasy is over..

Storyteller, Storyteller
Telling tales so tall
A witness so false
Storyteller, Storyteller
You lead your audience on
For your fiction they fall
Believing the fraud...

Innocence lost
I was safe and secure
Now it's all gone
Sorry, I lied
Is that all you can say?
Sorry, you tried
I was convinced
By the sweetest of talk
Not to resist
You'll be exposed
By the people you played
Watch it unfold

You told me
What I wanted to hear
Your words paint pictures so sincere
Well some things
Aren't as they appear
The fantasy is over..

Storyteller, Storyteller
Telling tales so tall
A witness so false
Storyteller, Storyteller
You lead your audience on
For your fiction they fall
Believing the fraud...
...Believing in you
Believing in everything
You told them you could do
You're just a facade
You'll never be true
Storyteller you are through
Storyteller you are through

It was all an act
It was all an act for you
It was all an act
I guess I was the fool

Storyteller, Storyteller
Telling tales so tall
A witness so false
Storyteller, Storyteller
You lead your audience on
For your fiction they fall
Believing the fraud...
...Believing in you
Believing in everything
You told them you could do
You're just a facade
You'll never be true
Storyteller you are through
