Game of Lies

The pressure is increasing
Your performance is losing its conviction
And your audience is beginning to drift
You can't keep playing this game forever

The circle of lies is arcing back
Back to its origin
The whip of fear is on your back
As you continue your frantic dance

We wear the mask until we forget who we are
We play the game for so long
That we forget it's a game
And that we always lose

The words start to flow
You rip the layers of deception off
Until there is nothing left
And you are left face to face with the truth

1 John 1:9 - 'If we confess our sins, he is faithful 
and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us
from all unrighteousness."
