ugly lies

Your endless lies
have their own disguise
Quick to cover your own
But soon youll be alone
you hurt the one
you claim you love
she sits back, so quiet
as to not start a riot
she knows what youve done
you feel you have won
but just wait and see
how hurt you will be
when she stands up to you
theres nothing you can do
she smells it on your breath
the smell is a toxic death
She sees it in your eyes
Through all your shameful lies
How hard is it to be
more honest with me
what have i done so wrong
to feel like i dont belong
I thought we were past
all the lies at last
but now i see its you
that has growing up to do
if you want my trust
honesty is a must
if you continue to lie
i will be forced to say goodbye

I know what you mean. The

I know what you mean. The world is saturated in lieing, everyone has or will do it. As if coded into our DNA... However, there should be no secrets between mates. Even family.
