The Honest Poet
I am the honest poet
Okay maybe I'm not
I probably lie a little
Okay maybe I lie a lot
I mean does it really matter
If what I say is true?
It shouldn't matter at all
If I'm not talking to you
I often even lie to myself
I can't believe a word I say
I'm not very trustworthy
Maybe it's better that way
I lie and say I'm joking
Tho it was really a lie
Try and figure that on out
If you really wanna try
I'm not really a liar
See, I lied once more
No, I'm only kidding
Remember what I said before?
Okay, I guess I'll end this poem
Or maybe I might be lying
Okay I'm doin' the best I can
Okay, I'm not, but I'm trying
