All the Lies

I hope that you’re warm and cozy all wrapped up in your blanket of lies, the ones that you spoke to me in that time That time that we are not to speak of because to you it doesn’t exist, well my love sit back and get comfortable, because I have had enough of this I am the witness that was there in that time, I am the one that you caused so much pain to and lied I remember it all so vividly and I know that you do too, but you just want to pretend that you don’t know me and that’s alright you do you So, let’s start at the beginning shall we? Remember? It was a Tuesday and I was on the other end of the line, I’m the one that answered your call and you’re the one that wanted to keep talking to me although you may say this isn’t right Go ahead and lie to yourself and pretend it never happened this way, you have your version and I have mine and I’m here now putting my words of you on display See you were the one that started the conversation telling me all about the pain that you were in, how you couldn’t bear to live in that house and continue to play pretend I was a total stranger then and you were spilling your heart out to me, I guess that you just wanted someone to listen and unfortunately then that person was me I fell for it, you reeled me in with the stories of your pain, and so the kindhearted person that I am I tried to help you make a change Little did I know though that it was all nothing but lies, you were genuinely happy there with her, you were you just wearing a disguise Maybe you lost a bet, maybe you were just bored with your life, who knows? Who can say? But there was a reason that we crossed paths that day I know now that it was to teach me a lesson, but I’m not sure what the reason was for you, because you’re never going to admit to yourself that it ever happened, and you know I’m speaking the truth The phone calls that were made to me every day, sometimes more than once, just you checking in to make sure that was okay You just wanting to hear the sweetness of my voice, and notes that you would write to me telling me that you had made your choice Painful words and tears that I wonder if they were real? I wasn’t there to witness them fall, anyone can pretend to shed a tear Smiles in person and eyes that would look into my soul, all actions that you had perfected just so that I wouldn’t know The way that you would hold me, the way that you kissed my lips, the way that you pretended as though you had found eternal bliss The longing, the missing me, the pain of being away, those were just lies to keep me close so that you could play the game that you wanted to play The ending, the way that you miraculously worked things out overnight, knowing in my heart that you had never left her side and you know that I am right She is oblivious to the liar that you really are, but that’s alright love, you stay wrapped up in your blanket of lies and you live with those scars The ones that you wear on the inside that no one knows about, the ones that are in your mind that you dare not let out Yes, I know all about them and I hold all your lies in my hands and heart too, so go ahead and be happy because that’s what liars do They think that there will never come a day where there will be a price to pay, I might not be the one to collect but you will have your day So, enjoy it while it lasts, that calmness that you feel, because one day all your lies will be exposed and then how will you deal?
