impostor

,the old man was trembling
as he violently exclaimed
you are far too honest
for the good of anyone at all !

you're an impostor,
just who do you think you are ?
you don't belong with us,
why won't you heed these words ?

you come here with your simple truth
but only complicate our lives
begone, you charlatan,
there's no such thing as an honest man

your flame, it burns too bright f
or us to ever rest at ease
as our homes and houses are
but made of tinder sticks and lies
