Convincing

Speak, oh so softly and make it sincere, hold your tongue, say no more now, for they'll start to fear Reach out and touch them, take hold of their hand, release them, let them go now, for they understand Look into their eyes, gaze ever so deep turn your head, look away now, as they start to weep Search for an answer, for that's what you do, there's always an answer but rarely, they're true Dig deep inside you, look into your soul, you'll see there's no conscience, there is but a hole? The price for your lies is ever so steep, do whatever you need to, for you then, to sleep
