Liar

I have always been so proud

Of my honest heart

So naturally the truth

Flows from my mouth

Of course I have lied

My share of times in my life

But it's pulling the teeth

They pass to even spit them out

So it's so hard to find

That I've been lying

To myself all this time

I say I know you but

It's time I realized

This life I lead is far

From glorifying

Redundancy is plaguing me,

It happens all the time

Because I just keep trying

And it's so dark in here

And I need you near

To ease my growing fear

So now I know the truth that

I've been missing all along

Or maybe just didn't want to hear

And I confess I'm a lifetime liar

Of the truest kind

But I'm no longer blind
