TWYL (Talk With Your Lies)


I think it's so cute,


I think it's so sweet,


How you always try to lie,


To me,


It's so bittersweet,


Yet, it rots your teeth,


And it keeps you from believing me,


I just don't understand,


Why you treat me this way,


I've done nothing to you,


But you, like the waves, you sway,


Can you just, stay away?


I don't want your disease to stop me,


From believing in me,

Since you talk with your lies.
