Little white lies
Hidden beneath the snow of deceitful thoughts
Surrounding a mountain of lies untold
Reserved for those who have sold the truth for bitter winnings
Tender petals of glistening white,
Adorned with the blue jewels of truth
That will never be spoken
The flower of the selfish
Is always sought after...
Hidden beneath the snow of deceitful thoughts
Surrounding a mountain of lies untold
Reserved for those who have sold the truth for bitter winnings
Tender petals of glistening white,
Adorned with the blue jewels of truth
That will never be spoken
The flower of the selfish
Is always sought after...
