Liar liar, burn like fire
Scorched your tongue
While you're still young

Sins engulf your teenage years
Smeared and stained with heartbreak's tears

Confused and lost
You've paid the cost
Of being wild
While still a child

Now you're broken
Dead inside
Used now useless
And trying to hide
From the shame that surrounds you
Don't know what to do

Do you get help?
Or do you keep to yourself?
Alone and afraid
Too tired to pray
Drift off to sleep
Forever silent
Eternal peace
Dead
