Stating the obvious

What we all have sitting in front of our noses is always the hardest thing to see.

The stars aren't the only thing that twinkle in the sky
Doesn't God forgive us when we do lie
Doesn't the sun rise only to watch the moon fall
Don't we all answer to someone else's call

All the things in life that we think are so sure
All the lives we make corrupt and impure
Aren't we all trying to reach some sort of promise land
All looking for hope in an unknown's outreached hand

Searching for someone who can take the pain away
Longing for a reason to live another day
Some hunt for the moment that will make their names last forever
Others just struggle to hold themselves together

A few seek refuge inside the realm of thought
The rest try to run from life but all eventually get caught
Can it really even be called a life if your living on the run
Never really knowing if you'll make it to the dawn's morning sun

What happens to the world when we all fall asleep
Entering a world of dreams we choose to reap
To only be awaken to a world where pain is the same as love
None looking to themselves but hoping for help from above

Will any of us ever know what hides in the dark
How many of us will ever get the satisfaction of leaving our mark
Being Human does nothing but make us all blind
In a world with so many, isn't life the hardest thing to find?
