What Happen To the Word of Man

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why
Some people can't look you in the eye
Seems like the more that time passes by
The more apt people are to lie
As hard as I try to analyze
I strongly advise staying away from these guys

The ones that won't look you in the eye
Without thinking they must lie
Believing people will always sympathize
With there dirty lies
It's enough to make you want to cry
Anything else seems to imply
That it's okay to lie

Brought up to rely on my word
Anything else seems absurd
The Bible teaches us that it's a sin
No matter how far I look I can't seem to win
Some people just don't know where to begin
Every direction I turn the more I learn
This is all part of the devels burn
It's time that we all need to be concerned

And realize anyone who lies to another
Has to live with the thought of us discovering
The truth about who they are inside
Not able to testify on their own behalf
In which man has always relied 
I despise the ones who won't look you in the eyes
Not able to compromise
Always trying to pull the wool over your eyes

Realizing we must cut all ties
These people can't seem to decipher 
The truth from their own lies
I can recognize the lack of light 
That reflects from their eyes
So sad as it will only lead them to their demise
With nobody left to here their dirty lies
