Analysis of Silver lies
What a fool she must be,
To ignore the signs she could see.
Secretly, She always knew.
There is no one truly true..
How absurd she must of sound,
Boasting of the feelings she thought she had found.
They must of laughed throughout the town;
"How easily it is to break her down."
How sad she must be.
Without much hope and damaged is she.
To trust a silver tongue and a smile,
Is to face regret and pain that last a while.
Simply put, she is so gullible,
Captured by the thought of her being loveable.
How foolishly easy it is to ruin her day.
Even though she had heard it before, she still believed in what they would say.
So like a puzzle piece that refuses to lay.
She doesn't quite fit and the only one not seeing the play.
These days life is for for a game of clue.
Tormentors are cast as cupid with lies that are never really throu.
Now she can't tell who is really who.
She knows falling asleep would of been better than falling for you.
