Liar Liar

I was sitting on the edge looking down into the abyss
Wondering if there is bottom below the mist
A gust of wind gives my back a kiss
And the choice was made to take the risk

Deciding to dive deeper, I'm back on top
I was moving to fast to realize that I had stop
What was my pleasure the mist has it all
I've surpassed the sun while taking a fall

Having plunged in and now life has to be lived
So much need to take but there's nothing to give
How can you burn that which was made of flame
How can you disgrace those that have no shame

When did I wake up smelt my own breath
Realize the hand I was dealt and saw my own death
Was I lying in the gutter or welcoming wealth
Was I out contributing or out for self

All passion was gone, but I was on fire
While lying in the dirt I swore that I'd never tire
I'd given all even though I refuse to give
swearing I wanted to die but needed to live

My life was a novel
It painted a picture across the sky
Here being covered with a shovel
I now realize that my life was a lie
