The Liar and The Fool

Why would I lie, when you've lied so well?
On what has been, I sometimes still dwell.
When I gave you my soul, it was not yours to sell.
But then when you left, I was merely a shell.

For long I'd called out, over lands of despair,
Screaming in silence, on ground that was bare.

Calling, calling your name.

It's driving me insane and I have no one to blame.

Why would I lie, when lies only go so far?
You've left me with my biggest scar.
Do promises mean nothing to you anymore?
Or did you only ever care behind a closed door?

For long, I could see no light in the darkness you brought,
Why have I suffered when for love I have fought?

Screaming, screaming your name.

You've left me alone with no one to blame. Is this your sick game?

Why would I lie, when the truth I can tell?
I thought I was graced when before you I fell.
You shoved me away and before I could yell,
You turned me your back and said "Go to Hell."

Too long I've withered in the wake of your infidelity
If you ever turn back now, don't think you'll find me.

I'm cursing, cursing your name.

And still, I have no one to blame. You drove me insane.
