Don'T Ask I Won'T Tell

Don’t ask I won’t tell Don’t ask me and I won’t tell you so wipe that puzzled look off your face we all know that the truth hurts much more than a lie It has been said by the wizened for thousands of years that one and all are delivered their just desserts In the dollar store aisle three is where they keep all the sugar coated treats and tidbits you consume so easily But know this, you and I are done it’s all due to your lies, a mistake I won’t repeat I gave you my love without hesitation, question, or doubt it was your choice to cast it as dust in the wind Through the anger, torment, and anguish in my soul you have sent my way I have still tried to be your friend I feel for you still and though loathe admitting quite deeply and I will cry and petition for your release from hell The forest for the trees girl, it’s a simple thing to take one little blue pill a day.
