Your Downfall

All of the lies you constantly tell
Make me want to shoot you
All you do is hurt everyone around you
It makes me want to kill you

Everything you say is poison
Everything you say is pain
Your lies eat away the flesh of my control
And makes me want to lash out at you

Your lies make me hate you
I've lost all respect and love for you
I only wish for you to die now
That's all you really deserve

These lies will gnaw at me
Until I finally take a knife to your throat
And spill all of the warm juice
That enable you to talk, breathe and live

Then our lives will finally be pure
You won't make him cry and hurt anymore
Things will be better than before
Your poison won't kill us anymore

You'll be dead
Your poison will be what kills you
Lies are death
Lies come back to haunt you

You will be your own downfall

    I don't know what the person above was saying...it made sense, perfectly. I guess too many people have feelings of murder in their hearts-really worng but it comes and fights and sometimes consumes.
    Great write!
