Lies
Everyone tells them
No one likes them
They are only there to hurt us
Lies
They spread like a wildfire
You can't stop them from growing
No taking anything back
Lies
Always coming back to bite you
Never just a harmless slip
Made to crush the people around you
Lies
You are in control
They all bow down to you
You are in charge of what happens
Lies
There's one you didn't start
You never did that!!!
Your life is SO over
Lies
They surround us daily
No one can stop them
A mind of their own

I lay in my cave
I've been here for many years now
Waiting for you to use me
You've used my brothers
You've taken away my sisters
My parents are long gone
But yet i remain
Lonely and sorrowful
Waiting for something to happen
I guess I should be hopeful
I mean, it's only a matter of time
Before you're heart is broken
Or someone calls you names
Or your dad beats you again
Or maybe the neighbor's dog might even bite your leg
Wouldn't that be lovely?
But instead you just sit there
In your room
Doing nothing
Nothing at all
I don't think you have many friends
Not many people come visit you
And you don't really leave that much
Except to go to school
I don't want to be used there
I will not show myself in front of those *******
But maybe
Just maybe
If I'm very lucky
One of them will say something to you
And you'll go home early
Then you'll want to flop down on your bed
And I might finally be released
Oh boy!
Won't that be something?
There is one thing that bothers me, though...
There's a shiny piece of metal
That you seem to love to use
Whenever it comes out
I get really excited
Because maybe I'll finally be set free
But what if I fall on the metal thing?
It looks so scary
Even though you keep it so shiny
If i fall on that
I fear that you may wipe me off
Oh please don't wipe me off!
I want to fall next to you on your bed
And be there
Every night
Forever
To comfort you
To watch you
To behold you
It is my dream to be let free
Please give in
Please let me go

— The End —
