Lies came after the beginning
It did not exist at the beginning
A language crafted by Satan
A web spurn by the Deceiver of man
Net to catch men like fish
And drag them to hell to roast
Lies have many strands
One strand needs the other
Lies might have travelled for ages
Truth catches up in one day
Lie is the language of the thief
That comes to kill, steal and destroy
It is the gown of immorality
Lie has a girlfriend
Gossip is her name
The hobby of lie is fraud
Who loves darkness?
Who rejects the light?
Who rejoices in imperfection?
And insists on his own ways?
Lies plot against the truth
But a thousand houseflies
Dare the broom at their peril
The bigger the lie the bigger the fall

But I don't regret it
Other people were there
Other people know

and slowly
it
I wish I could have seen
your face when you told me
"I love you"
I just know you were winkng
at the girl all dressed in
