White Lies

White Lies Well he fell for her faster than the darkness Fell upon that mid-December sun As they stumbled up the stairs to his apartment Between the lustful kisses drenched in rum Where they spent the night descending in desire Oblivious of sorrow soon to come Her touch spread through his bones just like wildfire Poison words that made him sleep so sound and numb In the morning he awoke and she was gone Grey skies hanging over white lies she told Your eyes never saw the truth about her Well the dawn turned into day turned into night so long As he waited for a visit or a call Tracing every line to find the moment he went wrong Now he wonders if she ever cared at all Wonders, “was she ever there at all?” Grey skies hanging over white lies she told Your eyes never saw the truth about her Well he fell for her faster than the darkness Fell upon that mid December sun Worst part is he ain’t the only one Grey skies hanging over white lies she told Grey skies, white lies My eyes never saw the truth about her
