to those who changed my life by their deceit

why do you suppose
that it is okay
to state that black is white?

why do you suppose
that god will be in favor
of your deceit?

do you really think
that pretending to be one thing
is just or right?

i trusted you,
i followed you,
i thought that you were real.

but you let deception in,
and in doing so,
you forgot yourself.

i long for the days gone by,
days when it was joy to worship with you.
those days are long gone.

now, all is different.
all is strange
and i no longer fit in.

i have long since moved on.
i have found peace in a new place,
but i still remember.
