THE LIE

THE LIE

One day I told a lie
Its color was clear and white
This lie twisted around me
I became bound and tied

A small word of deception
Kept growing and maturing
Developing to lure me
Difficult to get out

Confused in solitary
Desperate and Alone
The lie was sanctuary
I kept going on

The lie became everything
All things in my life
To a point where I couldn’t
Tell what’s wrong or right

The lie I once told
Is now part of me and I don’t know what’s real
Cuz it’s several years old
I don’t know if it happened
Or whether the lie has grown

I once told a lie
At the time it didn’t seem much
At the time I was younger
And didn’t know or judge
I didn’t have a choice
I didn’t have much
I know I told a lie that didn’t seem much
I know I made a mistake
I kept it all inside
Till I couldn’t breathe anymore
I hid it and buried it
Deep within my soul
I only told a lie
And now it lives inside me
It feeds on my emotions
And eliminates my happiness
Tears up my heart inside
I feel sorry sometimes
Sorry for my self
I feel guilty too
I can never rest
The lie grew and grew
Until the things I do
Came back to take revenge
Revenge by me for me
By me because I lied
For me because I hid
I hid from the truth
I was only a kid
The truth that it happened
The truth and what it did
Now I’m only trapped
Chained to an evil lie
About the truth that lives
I wish the truth was dead
I wish the lie was true
I wish it never happened
To me when I was a kid
