I would tell you the truth, but then I'll be lying
if I lie to tell the truth,
then the end result
you will still think I'm lying
To be open about me
is like you being open about your personal to me
truth is
there is no such thing as truth
just telling you comforting words you want to hear
the only thing I could truly make clear
is that we are now and we are here
thats the truth
telling you I love you is the truth
but if I had to admit to be in love with you
then only my heart can speak that truth
dont fault me cuz my actions are distractions of false
information that can never be worded as you want to hear it
thenit gets lost
do I have to spell it
if you want to know the truth
don't go looking for it
let me have the chance to tell it
don't give me guidelines of what you do
and how much you can't tolerate a lie
cuz somewhere in the back of your mind
you too, are telling lies
but this will not be a tit for tat
a spit on your spat
this is the truth about some lies
now if you want to hear me lie
don't listen to my words, listen to my eyes
cuz the eyes dont lie
words are just a comfort sound your ears want to hear
those sounds that are passed through rushing blood
for the heart and brain get to get clear
The truth is
this might be a lying poem
but my poems dont lie
they serve as a truth
so listen, again listen with your eyes.
I am truthful
but I can't help but to respond in a lie
Truthfully, I'm lying
but in heart
in my heart
I will speak the truth
if I lie to tell the truth,
then the end result
you will still think I'm lying
To be open about me
is like you being open about your personal to me
truth is
there is no such thing as truth
just telling you comforting words you want to hear

Truthfully, I'm lying

I will speak the truth
you decide through my eyes
So decide now, or forever hold your piece!
That is the truth!!!!!
