I Was Wrong; Forgive Me

Everything we do influences someone. That someone could be a random stranger on the street, or that someone could be our loved one.
You know that you have the world when you realize that there's this one person in your life whom you have never lied to.
As for me? I've found that person.
I have faith that I'll never have to lie to that person.
And this faith will never falter.

This lie
Born in my blood
And grown within my beating heart
Has lived through my words

This action
Born of impulse
Bred from temptation
Is the mother of my lie

And from this lie
Came birth another
And from another
Came birth a lie

Cast in the shadows
Truth – she’ll never know
What the truth
Really is
Fed with lies
But starved of justice
Obliviousness is the key

And to lie again
The easiest day
Was yesterday
And today
Is just a day away
With these words open
Like a broken record play

And to lie again
To stop her from leaving
And to keep her
Still believing
Guess it can't last

And with this blood
Where the lie was first born
With this tainted heart
I’ll write to her
The truth of my lies
