You really gave me hope,
just a glimpse,
but then I opened my eyes
and realized it was lies.

Can I trust you?

No, nevermind,
what an absurd question,
wasn't it?

Of course not.

We're all human here,
right?

Then I obviously cannot!

Humans are greedy,
and always hide something
whether it's yours
or theirs.

Your lies are thick
like molasses, you know,
like honey or syrup.
Sweet,
too sweet to be real.
And yet,
you let them fall out of your mouth
like a running faucet,
it's so easy for you
to lie.

you're far too sweet;
it makes me sick.

I could tell you one big truth
- I love you -
before an even bigger lie.

I could tell you one devastating lie
- I will stay -
before an even more devastating truth.

Isn't it?
I mean,
there's not much we can do now,
but that's alright.
We will still
survive,
we'll remain
alive.

When in love,
you will notice
that you do not rise
like a brilliant sun
or a victorious knight.
When in love,
you will notice
that you fall.
It isn't the fall that kills you,
though,
it's the landing.
When in love,
you won't notice
whether it's warmth and comfort
or pain and hurt
until you are no longer falling.
