Snakes

The snakes
Are know as fakes
They are everywhere
And they backstab you
They also spawn left right and center
You can't get away from them
No matter how hard you try
You can't escape
For they make you cry
Until you want to say goodbye
You can never escape
The creepy crawly
Snakes
Inspired by mean girls at school

You tell me all these lies
But you say they are true
You don't see that
I can see the truth
You don't want me anymore
I see how you look at others
The same way you used to look at me

They scream
They tell
They will always eventually tell
Whether you do something or not
If you said it or did it
Everyone will know soon
They spread rumors
They spread secrets
It seems they don't understand
But it all makes sense
In the end
For you will soon realize
That they are your
Fake Friends

When you are in choir
It's like a fire
That never stops burning
We sing to our desire
As we are all part of this fire
You teach us all we need to know
You make some of us happy when we are low
We are united together
For we are part of this fire

Mother I thought you loved me
Mother I thought the words you said were true
They were all lies
You left me stranded in the rain
Until the police came
They set me up as a foster
They asked me if I had anything
With me I quietly replied
No I lost her
Who is she they asked
I burst out into tears
My mother dear has left me here
I thought she loved me
I thought the she said were true
Now I'm cold and blue
For I'm without a home and family
For I am now a foster
Inspired by my little foster brother

Our country is in trouble
The end is near
For I am just waiting
For Jesus to appear
To take me away from this
Terrible place
Where problems are solved not
With knowledge and wisdom
But with war and violence
It's truly
Meaningless
But that is it
The country that's supposed
To be free

The night before
Was gone for longer
Periods of time
Men on horseback
Soon arrived
My eyes sought
On the knights
For they would not open to doors
As the walls circulated around me
I fear the worst
As I cry out for I feel trapped
Because
The night before
was gone for longer
Periods of time
