STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 69- The Truth of a Lie (ORIGINAL )
Hey Steemit Family. Here is my entry for this week's Open Mic, titled The Truth of a Lie. I hope you enjoy it.
Lyrics
When I was just a boy
A boy just like you
My mother said you better tell the truth
Oh but I watched her lie
I watched them lie
And now I'm wondering why
The truth is something that
I should try and tell
Made the others run like hell
Bet they cast you in the well
If you say something honestly
Too hard for them to see today
Oh yeah
Well I've seen your eyes
And I know that you're tellin' lies
What you don't know
Is a piece of your soul hides from you
When you lie, like you hide from the truth
Well.... I tried it on for size
I told me a few lies
Little did I know they really multiply
And then I woke up swimming in the middle of a storm
Without land for days thinkin' of tired arms
The truth is a lifeline
A lie is a weight
And as I sink on down I have sealed my fate
Well I've seen your eyes
And I know that you're tellin' lies
What you don't know
Is a piece of your soul hides from you
When you lie, like you hide from the truth
I have a new tag for music lovers: Boombox, where I resteem up 2 five tunes a day!! Don't miss out.
Cool I will remember that
ZZ-Top, or Johnny Winter - I can't make up my mind between the two who this reminds of more. But what I do know is that I loved this, brother! Love the way you dropped the lyrics in there, and I love the title as well! "The Truth of a Lie," now that's poignant!
Thanks. Lol The guitar on the chorus sounds very ZZ in hindsight.
I've been having fun trying to learn some video editing lately. So I figured it would be a good time to pick up adding lyrics.
Nice!!!
That is interested and everybody loves this.
It is Historical Asset.
Thank you
