Because when you live on a sphere,
there's nowhere to run.
You'll just keep running until you get tired, and accept defeat.
When your options of freedom deceive you,
when they add up to some other form of what you're going through,
there's nothing much you can do.
Because when everybody around you breaks their word
and you've got nobody,
what can you really do
but pray the ground doesn't fall through?  
The fragility of trust has yet to be acknowledged, it seems.
I guess I'll just keep walking down this never ending road,
because I've nowhere else I can really go.
And maybe I'll find another unfortunate being, as lost as I am.
Maybe we could work this out together.
*Maybe we can all someday, somehow
Find our way home.

I try to write you back,
but were you ever mine to write?

i am a paradox
i am a contradiction
i am an oxymoron
i am a hypocrite

i am a walking talking
"yes, no, maybe"

black one day
white the other
lingering between the two
because I have no morals
and I speak of fake values

never choosen a side
never made a concrete decision
my grand words oppose
my petty actions
and yet, still overshadow them
i sugarcoat them
with lame excuses for excuses

my faults are the night sky
the twinkling stars are but airplanes
polluting the purity
mistaken for a force of beautiful nature
when it is indeed
destructing
the good
destructing
the holy
with its very existence

i leap
from one pond
to the other
politically correct
depending on the situation

i am the northman
claiming to belong to the south

i am the liar
i am the lie

neither here nor there
never here
never there
*never anywhere

don't worry, my angel
daddy will be home soon

i know he's been a while
but don't let that waiver your smile
he truly loves you so
he’d never let you go
it doesn’t always show
but always know
that you are his definition of joy
his definition of pride
his definition of home
you have his ever-shining eyes
and his spirit of love is within you
use that to understand
that even though daddy loves you so
he can’t always hold your hand
he can't always be at home
but you’ll never be alone
i know you miss him
but look deep within
he's always in your heart
just close your eyes
and imagine his smiling face
sun-kissed and oh so lovely
picture being in his arms
and think of all his cheesy jokes
it'll help you get by
it hurts, it does
but baby girl,
always know
daddy will
return
because
no matter where in the world he lives
you* will always be his *home

that's all you're good at anyway
