White Lights



I can only see the white bright lights
I can hear the cries
falling from my parents eyes
This all happened because of my lies
Oh please don't cry⎼
It was me
Me and my little lies

As the bright light dimmed down
I feel like a clown
All I want to do is drown
I can not walk
I can't even see a clock
Oh please just say
Say the time
Or the day
The day that was once mine

I try so very hard
I try to walk
I try to talk
But i can not

I should have never ate those fries
Nor should have told those little white lies
Now i'm surrounded by the bright white lights
