Exposed, How Should I Know?

Rating: 5.0


You tell a lie

a little lie

The truth will be revealed

you ask questions

The answers will be revealed
But if you lie, you

scar

a heart

how am i to know?
i have been to both sides
The liar and the listener
Those who will be punished
their life will be exposed
how should i know?
i have been scarred
i have been punished
take my advice to take my advice
because i could tell you the way
to a new life to new beginning
how should i know?
only because i have been there
done that. woke up from a coma in cold sweat and tears
only to
cry myself to sleep

a

Goodnight sweet dreams
Listen to me weep again
and Again and

Every night for the past...um...
I've lost track of time
i can't count anymore
i just count the scars
that still stay sore
if you think you know me
You are wrong

The only way to know me
is to cut me to the core

until i fall to the floor
my weaknesses are exposed
the only way to know me for
sure is to take a risk
so take my advice
so take that risk

because i know i'm right this time

Dont lie you'll scar a heart
You'll scar

my heart

Only because i'll know that another innocent
soul has been decieved
how should i know?
how should i know? ?
Because i have scarred a soul
or two before and
thank god some scars go away
it shows there is still hope
so grasp it don't let it go
The power of hope
will
take you breath

AWAY

AND YOU'LL FIND THAT SWEET REASON TO LIVE!

thank for the lovely write.. sometimes lies go unspoken for many many years they are the ones that hurt the most so when hear lies I embrace them so I can move on with life and waste no more time on them
