Keep your truths
and tell your lies to me
It's them I'd rather hear
Your candor'd looks are just eyes to me
and what you whisper in my ear
means nothing unless you lie to me
Your lies I long to hear
For everyone has truths of theirs
for agreed society
But lies tell me exactly what
my eyes are blind to see
You lie and say you're never scared
I know you long to be brave
You lie and say you never cared
I know all is what you gave
You lie and say you're content
I know you long to be free
You lie and say you're happy when
sad you'd rather be
The truth is overrated
We need lies to take their place
The lies that we've created
are written on our face
