The lie
Twisting and turning
over and over in my mind
Not told, but ready
ready as an answer
as an excuse
not for sympathy
but for more time
more time to straighten things out
the storm really does keep on twisting
'cause I'm building yet another lie
to make up for all that I lack
At least today there's movement
action
progress
appointments made
emails sent
work going on
but the time to tell the lie may be coming
or it may not be necessary
depends I guess but not on me
either way it's ready
and one day I'm going to regret going back to this particular lie
karma is a bitch
and she may bite me hard when the time comes
