We are told to believe that in which we can not see. They tell us that the earth is round and that there is a man in the clouds. And we take their word, reluctant or willing. The thought of being lied to is just so chilling. You must have faith, no questions asked. Well I'm sorry sir, but I see that grin behind your mask. We need faith in ourselves. The kind that you find within your soul and your mind. Today is today, who knows about tomorrow? You don't know who's leading, But surely you follow. Because they are and she is and who wants to be different? Yeah they might shine, but look kid, you glisten. Like the diamonds and gems we feel the need to buy, But they'll never outdo the starts in the sky. Which we now also buy, Because the words from your heart aren't worth the time. Until you make them rhyme and now they're changing lives. We're living in a fantasy, like our own little cave. But trust me when I tell you, everyone's scared before they are brave.
