intimidation has put me thru what i need to
stand up to you don't protest i've made up
my mind i've got to leave it all behind i

believed so many times your deceit too
many lies my hope for you in decadence
can't replace what's torn apart it took me

such a long time to realize i was an instutution
for you go where you want to go know who
you want to know now i know that i was

lied to sometimes i see your lighter side
the part of you try to hide it's true you
still don't seem to care never a word only

a stare no one has ever known you you
don't even know yourself your best friend's
your enemy too what else can i say to you

it took me such a long time to realize i was
an instutution for you go where you want
to go know who you want to know now i know

that i was lied to
