Rumor Mill
April 8, 2017
They think they’re quiet
But they think wrong
Whispered secrets
each one glazed with sour lies.
The rumor mill
it never dies.
Shushes don’t stop it
neither will I
I’m not the same girl
Not the one that tries
the rumor mill
it never dies.
I passed them myself
Once or twice
It was all just fun and games
Oh sweet bitter lies.
The rumor mill
it never dies.
Generations go by
and the cycle remains
though things have changed
one rule still abides
the rumor mill.
Cause it never dies
