Lies have a way of coming out and holding on to you
Its name is written on the walls
It creeps and waits behind your shoulder
It knows your past
It knows your fears

You run from it
You hide from it
You once narrowly escaped its hold on you
Escaping now is unforgivable
As it always hovers above you

I once wished it was imaginary
I once wished it were true
Now I wish

To remember what I had done,
If I had done something at all.
