Truth or Lie

I was just being modest 
As I curiously played the game 
But when I was honest 
I recognized my shame 

Curiosity killed the cat 
And what did that get me 
Something dead on my mat 
After walking home rather happily 

Now, do I pick and choose 
Who will win my clever game 
Am I another muse
Or do I just know your name

I buried that damn cat 
In the back yard of my mind 
As soon as it's decay tortured me, I decided to come back 
But when I look at it again, It's just you that I find 

So when I lost my own game 
Of daily truth or lie 
I hung my head low, and it was myself to blame 
The reason that I love you, the reason I tried
