TELLIN' ME LIES

Contributed by Alexander_McDonald on Tuesday, 3rd December 2002 @ 04:30:00 PM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry



Tell me lies.
Such little white lies.

To you,
I may be,
Just another,
One-of-the-boys.

But you should know.
I'm old enough,
To get wise.

Tellin' me lies.
Tellin' me little white lies.

Tell me,
What I see,
In your eyes.

The heart I thought,
Was on fire.
Must've been,
Your own burning desire.

Tellin' me lies.
When you're tellin me,
Little white lies.

I can hear it,
In your voice,
When you give those,
False alibi's.

I wish I never knew,
You.
And the things,
That you do.

Tellin' me lies.
Tellin' me dirty white lies.

And now,
By your own choice.
You must wear,
Your own disguise.

I wonder how it seems,
For you,
To live,
In your world of,
Never ending Halloweens.

Tellin' me lies.
You're tellin' me lies.

I wonder how you feel.
When all around you,
Love dies.

Hungry eyes,
An' looks that kill.
How hard you try,
To get your fill.

Tellin' me lies.
Tellin' me more,
Little white lies.

But it's never,
The way you planned it.
Sometimes,
There are no good,
Good Byes.

Love that is honest an' real,
Is found by so very few.
But how easy it is,
For you to steal,
Love from a fool.

Tellin' me so many lies.
Ain't nothin' new.
Ain't no big surprise.

Only one thing to do.
Say good-bye.

No more lies.

Grrr i don't like liars...i never understood what motivates them to continually just lie, what gain do they have??? It's hard for me to imagine that they can sleep at night in peace and laugh about what they have done to another person. Now i know there are people who tell little white lies to make another feel good but, even then i mean what's the point??? I'd rather say hey friend you don't look very good today but im here for you......instead of saying hey friend you look soooo wonderful today and im here for you... i do agree that it gives one alot of self esteem to tell little white lies to make one feel better like this but lying is lying either way you look at it, and i'd rather be honest in all i do in life rather than to hide behind a lie whether it be good or bad, that's not who i am and not what i will lower myself to. Thanks for sharing this one i think im done writing my novel now LOL...
