Lies In Your Eyes

There are secrets that we keep
Beneath the surface dark and deep,
Cloaked in shadows creeping
Through a labyrinth of hidden sins.
Breaking all the rules of custom,
Shaking the forbidden tree
To savor the fruits not meant to taste,
To see the sights not meant to see.

... And you have come to tell me
That your faithfulness is still in tact;
That you wade in fidelity; that
I should see your heart is true;
That I must keep you in my trust
And that you lust for no one else;
That history should be my guide
And blind faith keep me close to you.

... But no matter how you struggle to
Manipulate and vocalize,
There's no way you can deny
The lies that I find in your eyes.
