the love i invested i never got back <br />and where does that leave me further down the track <br />you've got to be lied to to know the value of truth <br />I have some regrets, i've wasted my youth <br />and we all know that politciens are all on the take <br />and i am a liar, and you're a fake <br /> <br />it's simple really to explain what you do <br />apply to every instance, 'what's in it for you' <br />as the african president again fills his boots <br />more children die as he robs and he loots <br />any love left is destroyed in the wake <br />and i'm a liar and your a fake <br /> <br />I don't know who you are anymore <br />where's the woman, the lover i had before <br />i don't understand my very own emotions <br />where's the love, the care, the devotion <br />the colours of our love have faded to opaque <br />and i'm a liar and your a fake <br /> <br />the rich get richer and the poor stay poor <br />and a cold wind blows in my heart and these shores <br />when i held out my hand you slapped it away <br />there is no winner here; we're both gonna pay <br />we are like two spoilt children, we only know how to take <br />and i'm a liar and you're a fake <br /> <br />it's impossible you can't argue with a fickle wind <br />it changes direction and nobody wins <br />sadly we both now know, it shall never be the same <br />the bankers screw us over, they have no shame <br />why not use the name your mother gave you, for pity's sake <br />I may be a liar but honey your a fake<br /><br />Peter Strugnell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-m-a-liar-and-your-a-fake/
