Confusions

How can one consider the truth, true?
When can one say what's false is false?
What if the truth is what's false and what's false is what's true?
Believe me, I am saying of the truth because I'm lying.
But am I really lying when all I speak of is the truth?
Now tell me, who is really lying and who is speaking of the truth,
The girl with skeletons in her closet or the boy who cried wolf?
Who is the liar, is it me or is it you?
