Efficacious aptitude

So here I stand as a man,
but inside I'm just a boy.
A boy who grew fond of a girl.
A girl who didn't know the truth.

She was deprived of a life
where everyone just told lies.
And so she grew to be abused
by sadist hands for their amusement.

When she walked,
everybody talked
about how she wouldn't understand.
And when she asked
they would lie again
so they could hold onto her hands.

I learnt her name
while we became tame
as the sparkle in her eyes.
And when she smiled
her heaven would open for a while.

I'd make amends but time was short.
And her dark side would retort.
This insulated heart of gloom
would have her take revenge on you.

When she walked
everybody talked
about how she wouldn't understand.
And when she asked
they would lie again
so they could hold onto her hands.

She was proud about her life
where she could read everybody's minds.
And so she grew to be amused
by sadist hands that were abused.
