the lies
they draw away
and leave me here
to see the truth
it was the lies
inside of me
that lead me to you
and I ignored them,
lest they recede,
and leave me alone once again.
as a mother,
as the night
or as a brother
they protected me
from what I could not,
choose not to,
cannot bear to see
the truth
is inside
of me.

see
see
see
the lies, they drew you to me
see
see
see
the lies kep me together
lest I should fall apart
see
see
see
the shadow's free
and it's been giving my thoughts
to me,
lest I be lost,
lest I be free.
is it really so great?
to be so free?
with nowhere to go
nowhere to be
and nothing to see?
the truth
it blinds me
something I cannot take
somethign I cannot take
I cannot hear
I cannot see
I do not even feel
that I am me.
just like the shadows
before the light
before the truth
I flee.
