Why You Just Stepped Aside

You can say you made your mind
Up, but you know your mind lies
And is probably lying—

A whole body decided
To take action, and the mind
Caught up slowly, debating

And passing it on to you,
So you could feel you made up
Your mind what to do, although

Mind was made up for you. Now,
You have something to tell us
For why you did what you did,

But we’re on to you. You know
You’re all liars in language,
And every word is a lie,

And if it seems cynical
Of us to say it, well then,
Make up your mind it’s a lie.
