I told you that I would stop hurting myself,
and you told me you loved me.

I guess we both lied.

No little girl,
You don't know pain
You are just a child
You say you want to die
But you are probably lying

No little girl,
You don't know stress
You are just a child
You say it is drowning you
But you are probably lying

No little girl,
You don't know anxiety
You are just a child
You say you can't breathe
But you are probably lying

No little girl,
You don't know depression
You are just a child
You say you hate living
But you are probably lying

No little girl,
You don't know these things
You are just a child
You say you speak the truth
But you are probably lying

No stupid adult
I do know these things
Yes you are an adult
You say you understand
*But you are definitely lying
Freddie Rogers May 2015
Sleep through the day
Wait through the dark
It's not what they say
It's what's in my heart

My body never sleeps, it just cries
Need another life before it's goodbye

Nobody knows
What really goes
Inside my mind
Should I be breathe or die?

Your brother in crime?
Nothing but lies
Turn your back?
Be stabbed with time
        

Im becoming unstable
From the deceit and fables
Should I trust them again?

**** it, im pulling the cable

Your bright smiles disquiet me
Something sinister lurks from behind
Sneaking, watching over anything corruptible

An angel
A precious one
Deceiving kindness
Seductive charm

Winged back, fair and pure
Feathers grimed with lies
Oh, I know better
I know your hands are tied to strings
Of puppets which ran
The carnival
The game of manipulation

Whitewashed gown drowning in knives
Hitting two birds with one stone
First, to stab the backs of those
Who made the mistake of trusting you
Second, to slash the pockets
Of those fortunate, enough to be
Unfortunate at your hands

The halo is a burning bush
Bringing in believers of your staged miracles
Pulling them into a greedy covenant
Until such time you can push them off to Mt. Sin

Twisted angel,
I've got you figured out
Twisted angel,
I can see you
Twisted angel,
Careful for I can twist your tricks
Just like how you twist everybody else
Idek if your friends are really your friends or your benefits bank

I would be lying if I said that I didn't miss the look on your face when you told me you loved me. I would also be lying if I said that I don't miss how you sung along to In The Aeroplane Over The Sea every time we played it in the car. How you didn't miss a single word. I would be lying if I said I didn't miss the sound of your voice when you were falling asleep. I would be lying if I said I didn't miss the way you made me feel. Physically and emotionally. I would be lying if I said I don't miss the sound of your heartbeat when I was falling asleep on your chest. I would also be lying if I said I didn't still see the moon and stars in your eyes. I would be lying if I said that I didn't still write about you all the time. That I believe writing you into paper would bring back the person I once knew.

But I would also be lying if I said I missed you. If I said you didn't completely destroy me. If I said you weren't the biggest ******* I've ever met. I wouldn't be lying if I said I would take you back in a ******* heartbeat if you gave me the chance. What I would do to be in your arms again.

There would be a riot
Breakin' of my heart,
I'd try to fight it
I could go out every night,
but I'd be lying
if I said I couldn't
live & breath
without you
There'd be a lot of lonely
Wishin' & prayin'
that you would hold me
I would do most anything, baby,
if only you'd come back to me
Come back to me,
there would be a riot

Oh are you better
You think you stand so tall
A head so big and growing
And yet a heart so small.
The shaking of your fingers
And pulling of those strings
The sneering at your equals
And lying of said things.
You thought yourself higher
The entire way done through
Yet now you have gone on
And you're 6 feet under too.

A gentleman, my father is.
He’s kind, and loving, and caring.
A liar, my mother is.
Her anger is never sparing.
Patient, my father is.
He waits for freedom.
A partier, my mother is.
She wakes feeling like dung.
Quiet, my father is.
He thinks before he speaks.
Spontaneous, my mother is.
In another bed, her secret leaks.
Forgiving, my father is.
He lets her back inside.
Stupid, my mother is.
Her ringer is on high.

Broken, their marriage is.
Lying, cheating, deceiving.
Tired, I am.
For ever believing.
Dee Bach Sep 2014
I wanted to believe you.
I wanted to believe all the lies you told me.
I knew you were lying.
I knew from the beginning it was all just a game.
But yet every time you whispered,
Whispered into my ear how beautiful I am,
I believed.
Believed more than the last
That someone like you
Could ever care about me.
But now I know.
I don’t mean anything
To you.
I never did.
Nor ever will.

So carve my name into your chest
and send me pictures, dear.

Write me letters in the red
and bottle all the tears.

Call me an angel.
Tell them I'm lying.
Scream it 'til your words make sense.

Fill your lungs with hatred
and spew out penitence.

Because you know with all your silent flames
and pledged ambivalence,
You know with all the months and years
of burning my pictures as incense.
You know that I'm your demons.
The burden that you bear.
I drove you to hysteria,
you say I brought you there.

So discard your kilogram of flesh
to punish me, my dear.
Leave it at my doorstep,
sweet nostalgia for my tears.

Tell me I tore you apart.
Whisper that I ripped out your reason.
And I will say I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.
I will say this.

But you never voiced your anguish,
your complete disappointment in me.
How was I to know that it was I
who drove you to insanity?
If you hated me so much, maybe you should've said something, rather than letting me 'ruin your life.'
