Butterfly Tears

Butterfly tears
Streaming down face
Exploiting fears
As hearts race

Assuming sincere
That inside matches
Can you hear
The lack of passion

Some cry to heal
No shame in that
Some cry to give
Some blame in fact

Some tears are fake
Beautiful they may be
Beware of the snake
Who cries help me
