A childish accusation, "You promised" Before fear's taught kids are bolder Denied the right, who can I trust And I can't say, now that I'm older Growing up we all learn how to lie Despite all our parents' trying It's become my second nature, why? I've found it's easier than fighting When the world demands a lot of you You learn to adjust or fall apart Rarely is the desired answer true Tangled in lies, where do I start I know I can do better and I should A refrain throughout our heads Binding words, be a kid that's "good" Follow through all that's been said My master is fear, I've learned my lesson Lying seems to be an act that's kind We tend to try to have good intentions "How are you today?" "I'm doing fine."
