THE HARMLESS LIE

They glance up and look around
They listen close but hear no sound
It seems as if there's nobody here
They steal and lie and have no fear
Their dirty tracks and sneaky way
The secret lover they meet each day
No one knows, but is that so?
Is Love not every place you go?
Why do they pretend that they can be
The only one he cannot see?
Are her sins as bad as the rest?
Is this life but just a test?
On Judgement Day where will you be?
Through the Pearl gates of Eternity
Or in the Hot Pits of Hell's torment?
Is this enough to make them repent
The scary truth of the Harmless lie--
It's not so Harmless when you die.
