Lies

Addicted to the lie

It hits the tastebuds just right

Sweet on the tip of your tongue

but bitter down the throat

You choke on the words

but still let them pass

People will hear what they want

so the lie isn't hard to pull off

Your eyes don't even have to agree

with what comes out of your mouth

Easy, too easy

concerning you more

pushing you further down

than where you were before

and still you can't get enough

of sharing this lie

even when it leaves you rough

yearning to die
