Circle of Lies
The circle of lies spins round and round,
Endlessly, repeatedly, without a sound.
Within the circle, promises shatter.
I tell myself, it doesn't matter.
But deep inside this wounded heart,
I feel our love fall apart.
I live inside your circle of lies,
Trapped until your vengeance dies.
I play with the shards of promises broken
And suffer the agony of truths unspoken.
Your life moves on as the circle grows stronger.
I feel I can't breathe or live much longer.
The circle of lies spins out of control.
To be free of you, I'd sell my soul.
