Alibis
Beauty cries in love's demise, when you make your alibis.
All my sadness fills my eyes, when you make your alibis.
Caring thoughts your voice implies, but the words are only lies
still you sing sweet lullabies, when you make your alibis.
Broken hearts will soon arise, different song but same reprise,
though your stories you'll revise, when you make your alibis.
Warm emotions, no goodbyes, loving feelings life denies,
hate within beguiling guise, when you make your alibis.
In your soul your heart implies, tenderness, I realize,
willingly you still chastise, when you make your alibis.
With grim desire R.J. sighs, as hope is lost, still he tries,
Within his heart each dream dies, when you make your alibis.
