Expose Your Lie
Do you dread what you hear
as shadows, slink from sight?
Does your heart thump in fear
with each creak of the night?
Do you shake like loose chaff,
feeling you're all alone?
Can you hear your dark half
sorting sins to atone?
How does it feel to hold
life and death in one's hand?
When you do what you're told,
do your morals still stand?
Will you refuse a kiss
cause your heart is seething?
Do you wallow in bliss
when jealousy's teething?
Are you ready to die
defending every scar?
Shall I expose your lie
and show you who you are?
