Electroplate

She electroplated silver
She electroplated gold
Metals covering lies
Truths striving to unfold.

The plates although chip off
And sometimes they fade
Truth will parade her naked
And naked she will stroll.

A lie can never be
Without a truth behind it
Lies plate her into blinding shine
Lies wall her into mesmerizing diamond.

She electroplates
Thinking plates never fade
She bricks walls
Thinking they're built with diamond.

Even though diamonds don't electroplate
They brick roofs and walls
Imprisoning truth
But truth cuts through diamond.
