Do Your Eyes Lie?

Posted on Friday July 03, 2009 by St. Johns

My hearts shadow shows
The truth behind my dark blue eyes
I want to know
Do your eyes lie?

I'm trustworthy
But I have a hard time trusting
Other people
Who maybe lying capable

There are things in this world
That make us all liars
Our trust
Cannot go to any others

My faith
Does not do a thing
In what I say
Or what I truly need

The truth lies
Within my heart
That cries
As I fall apart

There's one thing I wanna know
Do your eyes lie?
Otherwise I'll just go
Hide in a corner and cry

Do your eyes... lie?
