lies of the world
mikayla howard 2010 (washingtion)
You have odd thoughts
And they call you not right
Not mentally saine
But all you can say is no
But know its a lie
All people lie right
For the same reason
Cause it's what they
Believe is true
But not true
The government does it to
So the people think its right
To live the lies
The lies you make others believe
The lies you've told others
To make others like
No one is real any more
Cause the lies take over us
Over us they take
They'll take us
The world along with us
They've corrupted the government
And the police
And presidents before us
But why do we let them
Why do we let them spread
Through our bodies like wildfire
But just like wildfire lies can be
Good or bad
Just like people before us
