Analysis of Liar



You are a monster.
A demon of lies.
I see right through
Your awful disguise.

You may have everyone
Fooled by your mask,
But I'm not so stupid,
I've seen your attacks.

Cheating on him
Then claiming it's rape.
Lies! Wretched lies!
All you spew from your gape!

If you even knew
An ounce of that pain,
You wouldn't tell all
For personal gain!

I don't believe you,
You're not fooling me.
Experience shows all.
Your lies, I can see...
