don't lie to me

strip my body down

 take my skin

 take my eyes

all that's left 

 a rib cage full of lies

lies f e d to me

lies i've created

  before my mind

knew black from white

before the robin

took me on my first

flight

h a n g i n g 

        from each bone

   for years to come

for years to stay 

drown me in the lake 

for these lies have killed this s o u l
