Lies

Lies People like to tell lies And I wonder why Wouldn't you regret the lies When someone dies The lies you told them over the years Have come back to haunt you Why couldn't you have just told the truth And prevented such heartache But people don't realize this at the time Who they are hurting with their lies They just say them And then when they realize that what they did was wrong It's too late most of the time So my friends always try to be truthful Truthfulness is the best policy Because if you do not be truthful with someone It can come back to haunt you in the end But sometimes you get those weirdos Who don't care who they hurt As long as it is convenient for them to lie at the time It doesn't matter who they hurt As long as they get their way So I will end this now It came from my heart and I hope that it helps someone to realize That lies do hurt people Whether or not you realize it Written on April 1, 2007 By: Betty Sue KopeCrawford
