A Lesson In Charades

How could I have been so blind The obvious showed in the obvious places yet I chose to sit back enjoy the show and ignore the signs stay blind like a good little pet on a leash All the answers to the endless questions that never sub-sided Every rumor I tried to uncover proved true Almost a year to the date It's been one long game of charades and now I see I'm a loser for a reason Russell the loser, nice to meet you or pleasure to tease you I guess I'll just try to pass the time at least make a rhyme instead of feeling like chalk lines on the concrete, easy to erase Memories I kept so close, feel like lies and I, so easy to replace guess the cycle has to repeat Why can't I break the cycle it's like the future of me will end and cease once fate seizes the enemy called me or is just a stroke of luck from my guardian angel trying to do me a favor...
