I should have known in the beginning
It had to reach a bitter end
To play the knight in shining armour
When I was just a simple man

But I became the one you wanted
And for a while it all made perfect sense
So I believed telling you lies was
Just an act of self defense
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/e/everon/real+me_20306326.html ]
So it goes
Don't we all know the story
Of princes and frogs
And dreams colliding with real life

Well, it shouldn't have come as a surprise
You could have been well prepared for this
You could have seen it in my eyes
If you had looked there once

I never liked telling you lies
I've always hoped at last you'd see
The man behind the disguise
The real me
