"Lying is my forte, you know?"
"But I'm not so good at being honest..."
"It's kinda funny, actually..."
"My truest tales sound the most false!"
Night Tales Deceive
A floating, bebop sensation,
as the night diffuses my reflection
Shining with the two-beat -
I guess I can complain sometimes, huh?
Hey, can I talk for a bit?
It's about some stupid, hurtful habits,
but I can't keep still anymore -
it's just a short tale;
you up for one?
Well,
I guess I'll get talking.
There's something unique,
unusual about me;
I've disguised it as common,
but it's always troubled me
One day -
feels like it's been
ten years now -
A "MONSTER"
a "monster" spoke to me,
gulped down my heart,
and said "Keep on lying!"
Since then, I've been a true liar,
nothing and no one I couldn't fool
I guess I've been reduced to a "monster"...
...Hey, sorry!
Don't cry, now!
It's all just a tall tale, okay?
Oh my, dirty!
So disgraceful!
I falsify it all;
so I say -
but doesn't the truth
seem a little uncanny?
I'm deceiving,
turn the other way
as the lies pile on;
Once again,
I sneer at the tedium...
Bebop - could vanish any moment,
a girl who seems
to hate night;
Two-beat - could cry in a second,
a youth who
hates lies
Yes, much the same way,
they had input their petty "ideals,"
and their hearts were gulped,
and afterward, they noticed...
We simply had our wishes granted,
so there's no way we can live alone in our world
Is that a lie?
No way! I'm serious, okay?
My crumbling mind
fills up with "no"...
Oh my, dirty!
Listen closely!
Listen to my heart;
to my ego,
to these lies,
and to my truths...
Go and say it's lonely, it won't change me;
I'm always a surpriser,
making jaws drop...
Oh my, dirty!
How I hate it!
Come on, listen to me!
You look surprised, but...
I can't be saved, alright?
Just say "Ain't no problem"?
Ah, you never change...
"Whoops, I screwed up..."
As always,
I'm drowning in...
my uncanny self...
"Ahh, maybe I went on a little too long..."
"But hey, like I said, it's just a tall tale."
"Well, that's where I'll stop for today..."
"Next time you hear the signal..."
"I'll tell you an even stranger tale!"
