Caught In The Lie

I used to think
I was different,
I had it all figured out.

With my head up high
Believing I
Could never fall.

Swore I'd change the world
in my own way,
With a rebel heart, I'd break the chains.

Am I becoming like my father?
Running in circles
Caught in the lie.

Thought I'd be something stronger,
But I'm failing
Watching time pass by.

The dreams I had they've faded,
Lost in the battles
We all fight.

I'm just like my father,
I thought I was right
But I was caught...
Caught in the lie.

I used to dream
Of the open road,
Thought I'd run until I'm free.

With my eyes on fire
And a burning soul
No one could touch me.

Swore I'd leave behind
The past he made
I'd find my way, escape the pain.

Am I becoming like my father?
Running in circles
Caught in the lie.

Thought I'd be something stronger,
But I'm failing
Watching time pass by.

The dreams I had they've faded,
Lost in the battles
We all fight.

I'm just like my father,
I thought I was right
But I was caught...
Caught in the lie.

I used to be the fire, now I'm just the smoke,
I used to be the dreamer, now I'm just the joke.
Can't escape the shadow, no matter how I try,
I've become the man I swore I'd defy.

Am I becoming like my father?
Running in circles
Caught in the lie.

Thought I'd be something stronger,
But I'm failing
Watching time pass by.

The dreams I had they've faded,
Lost in the battles
We all fight.

I'm just like my father,
I thought I was right
But I was caught...
Caught in the lie.

I'm just like my father,
I thought I was right
But I was caught...
Caught in the lie.

I'm just like my father,
I thought I was right
But I was caught...
Caught in the lie.
