The LieOn

Серафима Пронина
<The LieOn>

I left everything unsaid.
This is not a usual me.
My own words are not a threat:
But I wanted them to be.

Wanted them to make it right,
To restore what we have lost.
Wanted to proceed and bind...
Never thinking what it costs.

Clocks and coins- such a noise...
I was deaf to hear it then.
Life is just a simple choice
Which belongs to every man.

Being left here on the side...
No. The center. That's my place.
You can run, but you can't hide
From the truth you're scared to face.

Hope you're never gonna know
What it's like- to burn from words.
I might say that you should go...
It's a lie. But it's not forced.

Such a simple kind of pain...
But why so?
I know the truth.
You are just like every man...
That's why all I see is you.
