White Lies
Nadir Ajibola
What would it take?
For you to forgive me
I can't rely on the time
So I'll wait in a garden of roses
With thorns in my side I'll wait
For you to
Recall me
Befall me
And
Take your time
It's alright
What could i say
For you to not fault me
I carry time like wine grapes on vines
So I'll find for you a field of white lies
Your eyes only open to blue skies
The wind on
Your shoulders
And gravity on your side
It's alright
Take your time
With me
Slowly
I will fall chasing
Every butterfly
On rocket skates
And morphine
Good bye
But this won't be the last time
Now i wait
For you in a sea truths
Stranded by my boat of lies
I tied an anchor on these lines
Just to hold every moment
Like exes through bad times.
