Instead Of Doing Wrong

The heaviest guilt inside in never that easy to hide; just think how the conscience will react to a false pretense! And instead of doing wrong, you could have been kind avoiding conflict and move along: can untrue words rhyme in a song? The laughter of a cheater is always a heartbreaker: when it contradicts belief and leaves one in disbelief! And instead of being jealous you should be glad you have me; get a clearer vision of what can be and stop being so ridiculous! The harm done can't be undone, can an apology spare a loss? Put down all the stones, it's your loss: trust is not earned with a rude tongue! And instead of doing wrong, show your kindness, not anger; admit that weakness is the worst fear, admit that courage makes one strong!
