Pretty Lies

The truth is ugly and so are we,
Behind pretty lies,we hide with glee..
The conspiracies of life have taught us thus,
Learn the game fast,before it defeats us.
Use your sweet tongue and beautiful eyes,
To guise the truth and hide the lies,
Dont worry about your emotional demise,
First rule of life is" learn to compromise"..
So let it all go and you shall see,
A pretty lie is all we could ever be...
