Walking on Lies
I’ve never really been alive only the dead walking
Running on lies and falsehood the only thing keeping it going
Is the ignorance I have for my future cause I know if I start looking at it
I’ll only want to prevent that life by ending it before it occurs
See I’ve lived for years without direction
Without much hope or morale anymore
Only just going about day by day night by night
Working at nothing just living for nothing
Where am I supposed to go once I am released
From the institution that I have grown accustom
When I know I can’t stand on my own as it is
When I know that I can’t do a damn thing right anyway
The only hope I see in any of this
Is an unsteady one a shimmering light
And that light is unsure in of itself
It doesn’t know if it wants to guide me or another
Through life and it’s perils day by day
If it leave me I know I’ll be left in the dark
Hopeless and cold at the heart and soul
What’s left of my hope and dreams will fade
When and if it decides that I am not worthy
Of it’s blissful illumination it radiates
Though even still the darkness that I create
Is almost enough to drown out every ounce of it
Cause I’ve lived for years walking on lies
Treading in oceans of blasphemy and insanity
All of which lay aimless with no point or direction
My life completely wasted in it’s entirety
Only true death will bring about the end
Of the pointlessness and the bullshit
Cause that’s the only direction that I can look forward to
The only direction that I know will come
For everybody dies and it’s inevitable
