Fairy Tale (Lie)

I did have some good dates
I’d say I wasn’t lonely
Maybe because I was dissipated
and made people worry
which led all those relationships to a dead end
 
There is no trauma or demon in me
so please put your mind at ease
I’m not a snowflake.
Besides, being jilted can’t even be called a trauma
Anyway doesn’t love just go one way or another?
 
I’m not lying.
Why do I have to lie?
You know me well-
I never feign [nonchalance] in front of you
In what way could I be lying?
Please don’t think you’re unforgettable
The smile is real, not a way of trying to be brave
 
I haven’t been to this restaurant for ages
I didn’t know it had been remodeled
Sitting in that corner by the window,
I can smell the fragrance of roses
Now that you mentioned it, it somehow came back to my mind
 
I’m not lying.
Why do I need to lie?
You know that
one of my shortcomings is forgetfulness
How come I was lying?
I do feel grateful for your company tonight
which I somehow should feel not used to
 
I’m not lying.
Why do I have to lie?
How serious could it be
when one’s love is unrequited?
Don’t say that I’m lying.
Life has been so hard already,
so some things should left undebunked
 
I’m not lying.
It’s love that’s lying
It brought you to me and lulled me into believing
that more I want it, the more likely I will get it
I’m not lying.
I wish for you to be a happy bride
And please just forget what weighs on my mind
