Lies

Alone at night
You wonder why
Things happen the way they do
The reasons things go wrong

What makes them happen?
Are they really wrong?
Or only in the eyes,
Of the ones they hurt

Is there really such a thing as
As truth in this world
Isn't everything one big lie
Distorted to suit our moods

You try and try
To make things right
To tell the truth
And live an honest life

Though you lie and cheat
And steal and hurt
Your pain is real
From a wide spread source
