When Nobody Lied

by x.Athame.x   Apr 22, 2007


Everyone around me is falling
There is no one left to turn to
Bridges are quickly burning
What is there left to do?

But scream, cry, shout, lie
Fall to the ground broken
Stand up and do it again
For the words are still unspoken

The boundaries are gone
No control here anymore
What we never thought would occur
Has happened, and more
Who can be trusted
In this world of lies
And even when people smile
You can hear silent cries

From wounds in the soul
Still raw and bleeding
And at night you hear
Whispered pleading

That this can be over
The past taken back
Color renewed so you
Can see something but black
Ever since you started
This this tangled disaster
Everyone has hoped
It would end faster

But you are not listening
Your ears are closed
We are now wounded
And, dear, it shows

Look to us your once friends
See the pain here we hold
Remember please
Those times of old
When everyone smiled
And nobody cried
When all was okay
And nobody lied
