The Truth Stood Downcast In the Lie
The truth stood downcast in the lie;
she never thought he'd say goodbye.
It all was there in stark, plain sight;
the things he did were just not right.
His promises made her heart fly...
the truth stood downcast in the lie.
She thought she was the only one;
he swore 'forever'...then was done.
His words were gifts for her to hear,
allegiance to her loud and clear.
The truth stood downcast in the lie;
her two-faced liar said goodbye.
So easily he said those things
that fed the comfort true love brings.
But she was blinded, left to sigh...
the truth stood downcast in the lie.
