Lies

Lies that stole
My other half
Lies that
Took away my lover
Lies that binds.
Oh lord oh lies!!!

It felt worth it
As I lied several times
Convincing her to be mine, me alone.
Oh lord, lies that binds.

I promised to love you
Promised to protect you
Promised to adore you
Promised to treat you like a queen Queency in Persia.
Oh lies that binds
Flashed all the promises down the drains and left us drained.
Lies that binds.

Ended up living with
Wicked naked mind
Playful thought
In the black dark mist
Of evil spirits
Mounting up on my poor soul.
Lies that binds.
