Dishonesty

Into all the truth you bathe in, lovers, 
Will drip the tiniest drop of deceit; 

Whether it be just small dark water that dissolves 
Neutralised 
In the Crystal stream, 

Whether it be venom that turns the 
Pure flow sour and shows up your one blue 
Vein of deception, 

Only time will tell, and that time, 
Believe me, 
Can oppress as much as lies.
