I am caught in a web of deceit.

Each time I try to claw my way out

I'm told I'm involving another

Who'll be in trouble, without a doubt.



I have never told the handy lies

But, being silent, have enhanced them.

Yet, each time I try to put things right

I am told I'm creating mayhem.



I have never stood for deception

In any way, any shape or form

Yet now I'm having to live a life

So very distant from my true norm.



Stop the world! I really must get off.

I cannot endure this twisted ride.

Put on the brakes! Stop the rotation.

Let me go where the truth has not died.
