liar liar

Why do you lie frivolusly?
Throwing out half truths 
With no real purpose
Why don't you speak true,
When asked directly?

You say one thing
And then behave opposite
I don't see your hidden purpose
I dont know your unspoken logic
And I've dared to ask for both

You just don't make sense
I want to give you the benefit
I'm fighting my persistant doubt
My fault is in looking for good
When the evidence points to bad

I dont want to dismiss you completely
But I'm strugglig to see
The value you bring
The benefit of you
It's sad, really.
