tall tales.
By Mirror Mirror
The lies he whispers
Imbeds on his foul tongue
[he tasted so
sweet]
The sounds of a broken record
Plays over and
over
In my head
I hear his voices
Telling tall tales
Emerald green eyes of jealousy
Pierces into my soul
In
fright I try to bury my heart
Deep within
A place he’ll never
find
The words he speaks
So far convinced, twisted
and entangled
[no more]
Release me, release me now
This chain of fear
Pulls me down leisurely
Into this black
pool
In some distant realm
Bruises painted on my face
Crimson ribbons lying on my wrists
Burning tears that trickle
down
Has he not done enough?
My lonely soul wanders
The ways of his lying cheating tongue
Has crawled up inside my
ears
[go away]

These are words worthy of crawling into anyone's ear and staying awhile. Welcome to the Valley.
