Look you in the eye and lie

by jaki   Aug 9, 2005


Do you want me to look you in the eye
And tell you I’m fine
Do you want me to assure you
That I will be ok
Do you want me to read the bullshit words
You placed next to my bed
Do you want me to look you in the eye
And lie to your face
Do you expect me to believe
That everything will be ok
When it’s clear that it won’t
Do you expect the lies to come true
That miraculously everything will be ok
And do you expect me to lie
When the one and only thing you have ever taught me
Is not to lie.
