BLIND MOUTHS HAVE NO WHY

I shoulda known your mouth was blind after I read your eyes first lies. Your lips love to dance to the rhythm of my cries, How is your tongue the suspect but I’m doing the time?. Your truth is the key that makes my cuffs untie, but you’d rather the confession remain inside, While watching me seek for the things you hide placing my fingerprints all over your crime. Listening to your voice tells me there’s nothing to find. There’s always a jackpot after that famous line with your name on it still you claim it’s not mine. Once again my threat to leave inspires your confide the whole time you had the answer while standing right beside. Stabbing me in the back just to catch me from behind, my back is in your lap how do you look me in the eyes?? Telling me that the killer is escaping through the night, listening to your last story as I lose my life. My killer says I love you, my killer is my wife. Assuming i don’t know that it’s her hand that holds the knife. Physically I am here but emotionally I die drowning in the promises that always wave goodbye. Waiting with popcorn for the scene when she will try. Staring at the ladder that I know she’ll never climb, wondering if I’m worth going that high. She says I am but her truth is always shy, every word from her voice that lists my needs are always right. But every movement in her actions doesn’t show up to fight. She’s starting to fish but now i will not bite, the cycle on her pole for me is just not tight. I’d rather swim alone now, than to get on that same ride. The titanic is under and I’m frozen still like ice, her love wasn’t enough warmth she made me the sacrifice. I always knew I’d be the one who paid the price. Never hearing her own truth, because her fibs have pride, so the mouth on her is blind, never answering her own questions is her reason why.
