Your Love is a Lie

calling out the hypocrisy of love

You say love thy neighbor

But the sentiment’s true

Only for the people

Who live like you

The fictitious family man

Abandons his children like trash

When identities diverge,

Expectations dashed

The perfect patriot

Measuring countrymen by dollar signs

If that's love to you

Your love is a lie
