The people are freezing,
And the water is cold.

The ice caps are melting,
What will happen when there gone ?

Will the experts look stupid,
And invert the facts ?

Will they give you back our donations,
Or keep the paper stacks ?

The feeling is mutual,
You don't like what we do.

Because we say what we are thinking,
And that shocks and frightens you.

You can keep it,
Don't want it.

Keep smiling through your teeth,

Oh what is it ?
Your justice cut the hands of the thief.

He was starving
His children,
were crying to be fed

And now they're bawling
And dying.

But at least you are ahead..

"So how long have you known?''

"Like I said, I walked in on him and he told me everything. Just before that Christmas two years ago."

I laughed. "It really was 'for Britney'

"Guess so."

Me and Chris we're currently sitting on his bed talking about whatever came to mind.

"You still love him, don't you ?" Chris said to me bluntly.

"No ! He cheated on me and shagged Britney and that slut Alexis and, and a load of other slags ! " I lied.

There's a moments silence.

"Prove it then ?" Chris says, thrusting me his phone.

"No !" I said. "Not in front of you ! I'll do it in my own time, thank you !"

"Whatever." He says, rolling over and covering himself with the duvet. "Night Faith."

I sigh and watch him pretend to sleep for a minute.

I hate lying. 

But I love Liam.

And everyone will think I'm crazy if I tell them the truth.

Especially Chris.

And I know he knows I'm lying.

And he can't know.

So I will prove it.

Because the truth is I miss Liam.

His brown hair.

Perfect blue eyes.

His body.

And it sucks.

Plus Liam isn't jealous yet.

And I need him back

But Chris can't know...or Dylan.

"Chris ?" I ask

He turns over, obviously bored of pretending to be asleep.

Do it

I stare at him for a second, examining his features.

Do it.

I leaned in, my body went all fuzzing as his face neared mine.

Do it

It just happened. A moment I will never be able to remember, one I probably don't want to remember.

If you want Liam back - do it

And his lips touched mine...
