Consumed by the flames of life
Erupting all around
Covered by the flood of deceit
From the river of destruction
It was only one small lie
Then another to cover it up
Then another to make your story real
And another to complete your story
It could never hurt anyone
Never hurt a soul
Never destroy a life
It's only a lie
One small lie
Not even a lie
A half truth
A deviation from the truth
Not a lie at all
It could not hurt anyone
It could not hurt a soul
It could not destroy a life
That's what you keep telling yourself
That's what you keep saying
That's what keeps you going
Endlessly speaking
The cycle continues
You can never stop
No turning back now
You can't tell the truth
Can you?
Should you?
Can you really?
Should you really?
You ponder to yourself
Thinking slowly
Wondering
But...
What if...
As in...
The excuses flow out in a stream
Filling the river
Powering the flood
Igniting the flame
The flame of lies that keeps burning
Much Love,
Nella
