I've told you that I love you a thousand times or more But you always replied in doubt and disbelief I was always been convinced my words were nothing but honesty But I was wrong, you were right I lied I fooled myself each time those three words slipped out My punishments have already been given unsparingly But these wounds are not all from battle as I see many injuries dealt by my own hand Carrying the sentence for my dishonesty Branding me a liar You judged me well I give you that And for once you did not lie as you do My plea is guilty but I choose to appeal my case My crime of not loving you was not my fault alone For it was you, the mastermind, who did not let me love you at all

The honest liar
I've told you that I love you a thousand times or more But you always replied in doubt and disbelief I was always been convinced my words were nothing but honesty But I was wrong, you were right I lied I fooled myself each time those three words slipped out My punishments have already been given unsparingly But these wounds are not all from battle as I see many injuries dealt by my own hand Carrying the sentence for my dishonesty Branding me a liar You judged me well I give you that And for once you did not lie as you do My plea is guilty but I choose to appeal my case My crime of not loving you was not my fault alone For it was you, the mastermind, who did not let me love you at all
