The gods lie


Just like me and you,

Like my mother,

And like your father,

they lie.


About cancer and colds,

About life death,

Happiness and love,

they lie.


They say,

Dad won't die and,

I'll bring you to the festival,

We'll be together forever,

they lie.


the gods lies through us.

Using our lovers and loved,

Friends and enemies.

they lie.


they lie because they care too much

To hurt us or break our hearts,

But it only lasts a little while.


Before the lie fades away,

And the truth is revealed.
