He drew his intentions with pencil and crayons.
intentions written in pencil
if the intentions aren't true erase them.
Intentions written in crayon
a medium of colored wax
written in wax in case
my facts aren't true or askew
Hold a flame to them and all the intentions melt away

i love the metaphor in here.... it was very good.
my facts aren't true or askew
Hold a flame to them and all the intentions melt away
i love these two lines the most... a lot of people try to melt away their broken promises and such, and their falsehood. this was very good!
