Deceit: Verse 1
Don't ask me for
Something I can't give.
And don't ask me why
I'm saying this.
You say he's a friend,
I say that's a lie.
Could you just explain?
Just tell me why.
What's with the deceit?
What's wrong with the truth?
Can't you just tell me,
Why must I be a sleuth?
I don't understand
What you're asking me for.
When I know he's something
I can't just ignore.
