LIP SERVICE
Swallow down my selfish lies
Until you suffocate and gasp what's true
That love had never floated in your waters
And that is why I've been so cruel
It's like playing make-believe
You take for granted what I say
While I falsify infatuation
Your emotions led astray
Kisses and caresses
That make my stomach turn
I despise you, but you're caught in my web
A lesson that you'll never learn
Sweet whispers shaping those bitter words
But for you they carry such an appeal
I digest my slimy emotions
And regurgitate what you think is real
This lie has taken you as its prisoner
Your life made a labyrinth from this deception
But something you'll never know
Is that it was always my intention
