Game of Lies

You listen to the silence
It’s full of sorrow and shame
Guilt takes the center
Of the slightly broken stage
It’s difficult to watch
A play so short but true
Nowhere left to hide
‘cause the lead is you
Try to hide behind the curtains
Pretend that they can’t see
But the curtains all have holes
Torn and shredded at the seams
The spotlight’s too bright
Leaving no place to hide
You don’t know what to say
Weren’t given any lines
Cause life’s not a play
It’s a game made of lies
There will be no clapping
There will be no cheers
There will be no honesty
There will be no tears
‘cause nobody ever
Walks out of here
