Liar

LIAR


A liar of the soul
has no control

For he lies to himself
So how do you expect him to be truthful to someone else

He lies with his eyes and ever breath that he takes
Only cares for himself in ever decision that he makes

He was a friend of mine and I believed him to be true
He spat out his poison as all liars do

I can still taste it upon my lips
As my trust slowly dies
Once here lived Faith now she's buried in lies

And all that come behind me, I warn you from my grave
Faith is dead but Hope she can be saved

So if this  liar approaches you take Hope and run
Hide her inside your soul until this liars done

Take Hope and run or you shall be damned
in a world of betrayal and lies like I am

A dedication to you
