Lies.
They say the truth will set you free but lies, you see, can sometimes be the freedom you need. When I was a child they told me a lie can send a man to hell but I grew up and saw a truth bring hell to a man and I wondered if I was being lied to.
Now I find myself telling harmless lies because the truth isn't an option or because the truth wouldn't be as nice like,
A childhood friend dropped a song lately. How do I tell him it sucks? So I said "dope song bro", would I still burn God?
Would I still burn for the times I said "I love you too" rather than "I lust you and just want to fuck your brains off'?
Or the times I said I was fine when I was not.
All those years of Sunday school I was never told that there was a grey line between the lies and truth.
An area where you couldn't really tell one from the other, and even if you could then it doesn't really matter.
Those little white lies that I find myself becoming an expert. Those little Whyte lies that I think are harmless.
Will I still burn for them God, will I?
