TWELVE LIARS
Poem By: Billy Alsbrooks
_______________________________________
I’m not sure I can feel anymore
It’s been a while
Don’t know what’s real anymore
It’s been a while
Ask me
Ask me about the summer I broke all the rules
Ask me
_______________________________________
Born in the cellar
It took twelve liars to find you
But we almost kissed
Almost
But the river had teeth
_______________________________________
Say something
Anything
For hate has a hold on me
You wouldn’t dare
You wouldn’t dare but gravity would
_______________________________________
Lost
Broken
Confused
Where am I?
WHERE AM I?
_______________________________________
I’ve lost my bearings
Trapped somewhere between the wrath and dawn
We almost kissed
Almost
But the river had teeth
_______________________________________
I’m not sure I can love again
It’s been a while
Don’t know if I can love again
It’s been a while
Ask me
Ask me about the winter I broke all the rules
Ask me
_______________________________________
Raised in the ruins
It took twelve liars to lose you
But we almost kissed
Almost
But the river had teeth
_______________________________________
Say something
Anything
For fate has a hold on me
You wouldn’t dare
You wouldn’t dare but gravity would
_______________________________________
Lost
Broken
Confused
Where are you?
WHERE ARE YOU?
_______________________________________
I lost my bearings
Trapped somewhere between the dead and living
We almost kissed
Almost
But the river had teeth
_______________________________________
My nemesis
My nemesis in the light, I hate you
Yet in some weird way, I crave you
Yet in some weird way, I crave you
_______________________________________
My dearest
My dearest in the darkness, I need you
But going dark aroused the monsters
But going dark aroused the monsters
Twelve liars…
