Liar, Liar

"Liar, liar.. you never called. But I'll be just fine, yeah, I'm fine; sleep well." -Lydia

You're
familiar.

I see it on your face
You'd never play this game
You'd never thought to play it until today
And you're hoping for the best,
But he gets inside your head,
and he's who lives to deliver you your pain

But don't you know you can leave tonight?
Don't you remember how it feels to feel the light?

Because within your mind, there's lies.
It's like the ocean tide:
The waves, they range from high to higher
And he looks into your eyes, and lies.
His tongue, I despise.
It's what charms you in his lies.

I've seen it all before.
It's like I'm on a tour
Of the places that I go through everyday.
And you want so bad to leave,
But you've stayed so long it seems
And its in your head that you deserve this fate.

I know you want to leave tonight.
I know you remember how it feels within the light.

Because within your mind, there's lies.
It's like the ocean tide:
The waves, they range from high to higher
And he looks into your eyes, and lies.
His tongue, I despise.
It's what charms you in his lies.

I know it's hard to say goodbye
Despite that it's all you've ever known.
Don't trade your life
For empty promises and a broken soul.
He'll drive you in
With words that he can never act upon.
Run to the One
with open arms, He's loved you all along.

One day you'll find his lies,
Inside his unswallowed pride.
Suspicions raise from high to higher.
For you to be completely his tonight,
He'll swear he's on your side.
But he was born to lie. 

Author's Note

This is about a friend of mine who is letting a guy lie to her just to get what he wants. It upsets me to know she's an awesome person but is allowing such a jerk to influence her. I think a lot of people go through this sometimes. Hope you enjoy!
