ME: I go deaf when they call me a friend,

I : What then?

ME: Heard friendship comes with a price,

I : Then pay the price.

ME: But what is the price,

I : Simple - trust.

ME: Have you ever paid the price?

I : Not much, maybe once or twice.

ME: Was the prodcut any good?

I : One maybe,others like rotting food.

Me: But, how do you know ,who to pay?

I : That's to see each day.

ME: How much the price?

I : What after you have taken the lies.

ME: Yes, thats of couse,

I : I know not, to say with remorse.

ME: How do you tell between the truth and lies?

I : Have you tried looking into their eyes?

ME: Yes, but now it can even cover the greatest hate,

I : ah yes well, I guess it's to late.

ME: Tell me, do they mean their words or their unknown actions they make?

I : words come cheap and actions speak louder then words,

ME: So the lies, do I break or take?

ME: Call me a fool, but it hurts.

I : I know, I know,

ME: So there,do you call then friend or foe?

I : That I don't know,

ME: That I feared so.
