Who Are You Now?

I close my eyes
And pray it's not true
You were always someone
I looked up to
I hope he's wrong
I hope it's a lie
But if this is the truth
Than why shouldn't I?
Memories fading
Away from the start
Hoping I still
Have a place in your heart.
But cover upon cover
Hide the true source
No one will ever know
The routes of your course
Maybe you're down
And maybe it's me.
But I'm only complying
To what you want me to be
You helped me grow
And I like who I became
But now you're suddenly
Changing your name
You lead me to freedom
And just marched away
Without you here
How can I stay?
What is my name
And where is my place?
I look in the mirror
I don't recognize my face
And more, who are you?
You're not who I met
I don't even know you
And I'll never get
How you can eat up
All your own words
How you can change
Get higher than birds
And yes it does matter
You're a model to me
If you're going to do it
I'll mimic what I see
I think I have a right
To say you sold out
I won't look in the mirror
And I won't go out
Preaching to me
Straight in the face
How could you do this?
What a disgrace.
How can I look at you?
Knowing your lies?
How can I listen?
And look in your eyes?
If only I was there
To interrupt war
But if I had seen it
I'd have blocked what I saw
This one time I'm leaving
Freedom and all
I can't watch this happen
I can't watch you fall
We kiss the last kiss
And kiss it goodbye
You're lifestyle took effort
And you didn't try.
