False Truths

The shallow depth your words carry

Gives me doubt to your sincerity

Do you truly crave my attention, or should I be wary

Of your false truths that lend me no clarity

Is it friend or foe who comes marching

These murky waters hold the answer that will decide my fate

Your shadowy figure nears as the night is darkening

Help me tell before it is too late

I fear your words are worthless and cold

Do you even care how you wrack my heart

Are you even aware, or must you be told

Each time I think of you the taste left is sour and tart

All that is left is bitter regret

For a time when I was naive and a fool

I let myself believe the lies, I wish I could reset

I was used and thrown aside, a broken tool

False love led me down this twisting course

Ripping pieces from my heart during the descent

I cried out but I was just left hoarse

My heart is now mangled, broken and bent

My soul is dark and I am enveloped in a blackness so thick

I can see clearly now that I am blind

My senses are heightened, I can see through your trick

A light beckons, I must see what I can find

Following the light I must stay strong

False truths call with silver tongues

I know that this night will be long

All I need now is a breath of fresh air to fill my lungs
