Liar Liar(temporary title)

Liar liar running around
away with whores
on a warm summer night
drinks in a brothel
gossips fill the air

promises are lies
and time has stopped
for the whores, the liar
the demon within
in the brothel they sing

the lady in waiting
had dreaded the land
bloodshed and betrayal
her demon calls her
and calls her

  1. This was so powerful... wow. I even love the title, lol. Somehow reminded me of Dante's Inferno on speed... Pictured everyone dancing and whirling...

    (Found you through the One Single Impression site... I posted an entry too!).
