Truth behind a lie

Want me to tell you a secret? I could tell you the secret but then I might have to kill you The truth hurts so my hands gripping your throat kind of matches up No?, well fuck it All lies don’t sink because the truth floats Fuck do you need from me? You ask for the truth But I don’t believe you can handle the truth You’ll get crushed under the pleasure like fat chicks fucking midgets The lies keeps a smile on your face wouldn’t you agree? I the truth is the lie’s shadow I’d rather lay with you Yes, I’d rather lay here and continue to lie here Than give you my honesty cause honestly your just going to overreact Which in turn you’re really just going to react the way your suppose to See in a perfect world lies wouldn’t be told And the truth would be accepted without drastic measures I’d tell you the truth but you always told me to tell you what you want to hear The truth is far from what you want to hear so I’m a keep it far from your ear lobes
