Lying will only ever hold the truth
The words you say
Never make it to my brain
Don't tell me everything will be okay
Because it won't
Will never be the same
You'll just be lying
Straight to my face
Hiding the truth
About you and
All this pain
In the eyes of the innocent
Your words are wrong
They float around like loose atoms
Particles in your brain
Ready to collide
And explode in my mind
False confessions
They hide the truth
Witnesses lie too
So they don't have to hide
From you
Will they ever come forward
And tell the truth?
Or will they let innocent people die
Because of their lies
Because of what you do
No matter what happens
Whatever you say
It all comes to an end
With my testimony against you
(A/N) This poem was inspired by my own imagination, scenes from both Apple TV Original Home Before Dark and NBC American Drama Series Manifest and 2006 'bank robbery like never before' film starring Clive Owen, Jodie Foster and Denzel Washington, Inside Man.
The poem is about a court case involving many witnesses and perspectives, making it hard to distinguish between what's true and what's pure lies.
By the way, if you've never watched Inside Man, (2006) I highly recommend it.
