Sly

You know what I'm saying, Those games you keep playing, A dangerous domino effect you keep laying, Tell yourself best intention, Keep the peace, so don't mention, A little further, you travel from redemption, Can be dark or be white, A lady in the night, Either way, we know it ain't right. Whatever the motive you feel, This one truth is always real, "I just wanna keep an even keel." This is confronting to hear, What you may lose is your fear, Bend the truth to keep what you hold most dear, Not omitted or a lie, Justify till you cry, Don't deny, your actions are sly.
