Covered in lies.
People, covered in lies, lies.
In this generation-
does anybody ever tell the truth?

“To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.”
But what if thine own self shallnt be true?
To own man, or any man, do we tell ourselves
the things we are to be
and plans play out?

No man is perfect
Therefore, every man lies
about something
there is not a full decade
or a full lifetime
that a man is honest throughout.

Nobody is truly honest.
So, is any man really to trust?
I wrote this on a whim after literally 5-7 minutes. I don't think it's really that good, but I just wanted to post something.
