lies



From this moment I want the lies to stop.
In this game called life, I want to end up on top.
I want to burry the pain I feel.
And from now on, just know what is real.
I want to forget about the past.
And I really want our friendship to last.
I don't want to feel like some cruel joke.
Someone to make fun of when you're bored and poke.
So please stop and listen to me here and now.
 Because if you don't stop how can we move past, tell me how.
This is about so much more than my soul I've bared.
It's about this friendship and what we've shared.
