Perception of lies, apprehension of truth.

When you told me you were sorry
I didn’t believe it. (REPETITION IS A NO-NO!!! Very tricky thing to pull off. BUT.... it works here. )
Because sorry is a song to you;
Overused, overplayed. <<< Love that.

Twice before,
three time’s the charm
Is that your rule in life?
Grow up, boy.

Your eyes deceived the lie;
Your emotions betrayed the words.
You should have said it like you meant it
Because now I know the truth.

Sorry is just a word,
Five letters, two syllables
You told me you were sorry
[s]You didn’t mean it.[/s] (Repetition again. It worked before, but not here. If you are gonna repeat the first stanza at the end, make the poem longer. Otherwise, reword it.)

Your eyes deceived the lie,
Your emotions betrayed the words.I read it already somewhere in YWS. Do not "copy-paste"
You should have said it like you meant it
Because now I know the truth. Something is wrong but I don't know what or why.
