Are you for real?

You say you love me,

You say you care.

You say you’ll never hurt me,

You say you’ll never break my heart.

I’ve heard those words too many times before.

This time around, tell me, are you for real?

You say a beauty shines from within me,

You say a beauty shines from my face.

You say there’s music in my voice,

You say there’s heart in my words.

You say I’m truly wonderful.

I’ve heard those words so many times before.

This time around, tell me, are you for real?

You say you know I’ve been hurt,

You say you know the scars will always remain.

You say you won’t hurt me,

You say you won’t get me any new scars.

I’ve heard those words so many times before.

This time around, tell me, are you for real?

You say you will not toss me away,

You say you won’t betray my trust.

You say you’ll always be there, never to leave me all alone.

You say your promises are real. I’ve hear those words so many times before.

This time around, tell me,

Please tell me, are you for real?
