"Life is a lie"
I tell myself this everyday
And in a way
It helps, explains just why the sin
The greed, envy, jealousy
Can inflict to me a wound so damaging
It is as if my very soul is ripped apart,
Right as I start
To learn the goodness that resides inside mans heart.

"Life is a lie"
I tell myself this every night
Diminished light
And darkness creeps, encroaches me in web
The black, empty, nothingess
Can show me more than those outside will ever do
And so I choose
To shy away from everyone and everything, but you.

"You are a lie"
I tell myself this all the time
Commited crime
Against me, And so you must learn what
Method, motive, means
And work out just how you can change
Life rearrange
Become the man behind the mask you wear.

"I am afraid"
You tell to me and fail to see
Beneath the fear
But I am here, for you, forever more
In spirit, body, thought
You mustn't fight against it but accept
You must reflect
Confront the fears, that in your box, have kept.

"I will try"
You do not say, you simply show
So that I'll know
But I already know so much of you
Your hope, your love, your core
I see through mask and pierce the walls
And pray it falls
Comes crashing down, you knows my calls!

"Life is the truth"
And you are the lie

Yours forever, Phillip
