lies make people cold, hard, and stiff.
they make whole people become broken pieces and
they sure as hell only cause more trouble in this already fallen world.

so don't bother lying because
it'll only hurt you more in the
end.
it feels like I've been under truth serum all week. Constantly having to tell the truth and be upfront sometimes *****, but it's better than living in the lies that I have been since as long as I can remember.
I would say I'm sorry, but I don't think I am.
I like this new life,
it's better than the last one.
Also, this is a universal "you" because I've told enough lies in my life to know that we all lie. Sometimes in times of need and sometimes because we just simply cannot help ourselves. Most of mine were in times of need (like being in a relationship that I know my parents wouldn't approve of) so yeah, it can apply to anyone.
Just...try not to lie. It's best if you don't.
