Not An Improvement

they lied about me when people would listen 
now it would seem all those people are missing 

The public opinion of me might have changed 
fallen from grace they thought they would gain 
Looked better than me but they were the same 
So public opinion of them just remained 

They lied about me when people would listen 
they wanted respect but they were left wishing
