Because of One Lie

Told a lie but didn't realize That lie became reality Something built inside me It won't go away I'm ashamed Why this is happening The lie was a trick for them Now a trick back on me Eyes closed shut Nose stuffed Ears popped every five minutes Back crunched by the second Throat full of blood What was i thinking of? Could hardly breathe Wheres the family Out of house No help Hospital I yell No help I fall asleep slowly Still no family Still no help
