Lies

The lies.
A world full of lies
The untruths and deceit

It makes the world
Makes the pain
And makes me happy again

But then the truth
Always returns
Catches you in claws
And tears your lies apart

Wonder what’s worse
Knowing the pain
Or hiding the shame
Or letting the secrets out

The world was inside out here, like looking at photos through their negatives. Lies are painful and thus good! Hell yeah!
