Lie for a reason Lie for some kind of season Is this a reflux Look at those who lie It becomes part of their speech Which one of you cares Have we become numb These cannot be washed with bleach Where is the virtue This freedom of speech Lying was not the intent Are we beyond reach The things that we say When no one is checking us Defines who we are He who chooses truth Finds the seeds of honesty Which changes their heart To be credible We must be believable We must be truthful Edward J.
