Obstructed views.

I see my future in your lies

-

A life of sheer bliss

Wrapped in a white picket fence

-

I see our kids with your fear and my heart

And to be honest, it’s hard to tell them apart

-

I see the life that we’ll build

A beautiful ocean view on a sand-coated hill

-

I see us as the perfect couple

Performing the trapeze of a power struggle

-

I see everyone envying us

Distance can’t differentiate between trust and lust

-

I see a superficial life fit for a fool

I can see it in your lies. Can you?
