It's Not Gossip if it's the Truth

Put me in a hotel suite, motels are only downtown
They say what they want and don’t listen to the truth
Only seeing what they want and can’t see anything that isn’t skin deep
Brand names plastered all over you is all they are going to see, sorry honey
Their gazes seem to be blank and relentless
All those distractions you used don’t seem to put them at ease anymore, you don’t seem to be hiding from them anymore
All they want is gossip in immense quantities
Your secrets are no longer hidden, whispering isn’t keeping them from spreading here all the way to over there
All your words are being twisted and turned, nothing you say is being received the came way
All this drama seems to be destroying friends and only creating enemies
Do you see how your reoccurring dream slowly morphed into a nightmare, that is creeping into your reality?
Small mistakes are being magnified no one can miss words printed on a billboard
Everyone’s minuscule mind is only wired to find fault, being judgmental is in their blood
Who were you?
Forget about the person you once were this is a mess you have created, they were your mistakes in the first place
I’m pretty sure you’re no longer trustworthy honey, even your family has realized this
Your words can’t fix this mess
All these “lies” have altered their view, you aren’t a fake anymore, your mask has been removed
Maybe those lies they told were only the truth, you don’t seem to know you anymore
The mirror reflects the person they say you are, maybe you have always been this way
Were you just a picture in your imagination and they have revealed the actual you?
This must be who you are, no one else believes the old you was true
All their lies became truth
Or maybe it just always was the truth, you just never saw it behind that thick mask they took off of you
