There’s none more deceitful
Nor dastardly and conniving,
Than those special people
Who express themselves through lying
Truth is ethereal
But lies are concrete
I guess the dishonesty
Provides stability beneath their feet.
The pursuit of truth
Is a journey never ending
It’s no straight path
Constantly winding and bending
With no destination
No end in sight
Along come the lies
To say they can make everything right
They each grab a hold
They pull the lies in tight
Grounding them in misery
And Impaling them with spite
Now they are stuck
With no place to go
The journey towards truth
Cannot be found on this road
They reach a dead end
As the road closes in behind them
This is their life now
And truth will never find them.

Have you ever stopped to look?
To take it all in,
With your own eyes and ears,
To see the birds sing.
Beauty is all around,
It’s far and it’s near.
If only you took a moment,
Just to see and to hear.

Will we be able to see each other again?
The Pain in my heart still burns the same
it’s been so long
I barely remember your face
Whenever I think of you
My broken heart starts to race
My mind is an inferno
My heart colder than space
The darkness consumes me
Despite my smiling face
Am I destined to relive
That fateful day
When the universe looked down
And swiped you away
My son I love
This I think you know
That day still kills me
The day you had to go
To my forever angel
The guardian of my soul
I’m sorry I never got to you
Before you were cold
Daddy still loves you
And will never let you go

We seem bleak and heartless
Cruel and uncaring
Through the darkness we look
All we feel is you staring

There is no rest for the wicked
No reprieve for the wise
No peace to be had
This is the world
Shared by you
Seen by me

Life is a war,
Concluded ultimately in death
There are no winners
We all have nothing left

What we are and what we will be
Whether as individuals
Or all together collectively
Can be defined, But only momentarily
Our definition is fluid
Our destination undefined
All we are on this journey,
Is along for the ride
