They all live in their own little worlds.
A place that I don't understand really..
I mean, how can you fool yourself so completely?
How can you lead yourself to believe such lies?
They walk around as if they can't be wrong.
They can't be touched.
They're invincible.
And in a way - I envy them.
Their careful ways.
Their nonchalant attitudes.
But then their cluelessness catches up.
I know better than to want that life.
I know better than to convent their ways.
Because their little worlds are full of deceit.
Of pretty images, but no real substance.
It's just a picture.
Instead of reality - they chose ignorance.
They ignore what's right in front of them
And they shun whatever tries to show them the truth.
And that thing
That person
That very truth
Becomes nothing to them.
Instead of listening - they discard.
Instead of understanding - they throw it away.
They blame it on the messenger.
The part that threatens their "peaceful" existence.
It's all just a mask.
A charade.
They refuse to see.
They refuse to look.
They refuse what is true.
And then they act like they cannot be wrong.
And they're untouchable.
Oh - how they fool themselves.
And each other.
Each living a lie so profound -
That they ignore the obvious.
And each not caring how oblivious the other is.
As long as THEIR world stays intact, who cares about the others?
As long as they get their fix - their need - their assurances
Why bother worrying about anyone else?
It gets darker the farther you go.
The more you look at it - the worse it seems.
But no one really seems to care.
It's all about the image.
Does it look ok?
Do they act happy?
Are they showing too much emotion today?
Are they showing too much fear?
Because they all know that one day it will fall apart.
The little world they created.
The little act they set up.
It won't last.
Not in reality.
