Spoken Lies
Lock the door because they are coming now.
Forget all the old whispers in your ear.
Hopefully you will remember how.
Remember that time they called you dumb.
That was just last year.
Lock the door because they are coming now.
The voices were like pond scum.
It doesn’t matter how they want you to feel.
Hopefully you will remember how.
Words made it seem like no dream would ever come
When you let them they will make you squeal
Lock the door because they are coming now.
They will make you forever feel numb.
You can’t let the words unreel
Hopefully you will remember how.
They will ring in your ear like a drum,
Don’t listen to the noise, my dear.
Lock the door because they are coming now.
Hopefully you will remember how.
