Another Lie

A collection of my thoughts...

I’m sitting here in my room

Don’t know how I’m gonna get thru

The pain, distress, what am I gonna do

Cuz I have to deal with this without you

You were always the strong one,

You were always my rock, you carried me along

Like nothing would ever go wrong

But I knew the meaning of the song

I knew that behind the rhyme

Was a silly little lie

Promising a world void of pain

A world where everything was safe

But that’s not reality,

That’s not real to me

Because I’ve seen the real world

And it’s not pretty

I don’t know what to do to get you to see

That this world, and what you make it out to be

Is another lie

It’s cold dark and dangerous

And someday you’ll find out that what I’m telling ya

Isn’t a lie, it’s the reality of the world that you live in

But you don’t wanna see, you stop listening

When I show you you’re really not living

You’re putting on a face

Because you think this life is a race

And you’ve been brainwashed into thinking

That the good guys always finish last

Another lie

I told myself many times

That I wasn’t good enough,

And now look where I am

The cards in my hand

Are like a golf ball in sand

The lights are on but nobodys’ home

I up and wandered off toward rome

Because I got tired of dealing with the crap

We need to get off our daddy’s laps

And take the world the way it’s handed to us

Because that’s how we grow up

We’re never going to get anywhere if we keep believing

Another lie

They tell me they don’t love me,

But they don’t know that I can see

Through the mask they put on so carefully

I see the pain in their eyes

I hear the screams that echo the skies

They don’t know the reason that they are alive

But I could tell them, because I know

I know the pain on the river they insist to go

If only I could stop them I know

That I could actually keep them afloat

But they won’t, they don’t

Believe my word, hear my voice,

And even though it’s their choice,

Why do they choose to believe

Another lie?!
