Alisa Balaieva Poet Lyric

22

I’ve lost all my faith

Meeting people who were double-faced

Who caring nothing, except their money

Even if I’m simple and naive

Love leads me to believe

That everyone will find the land of milk and honey


I’m 22 years old

Seems that I’m already big girl

But I’m so far from realizing

If I did wrong or right

I can’t see the final light

My future seems so unsurprising

 

surprising

 

I wanted to know

Who I was, who I am

But I’m afraid of what I’ve become

Mistakes, fails and falls

Like scars on my heart

They prove nothing new

Under the sun

 

Almost lost all my faith

But I’ve met people who ain’t double-faced

Who caring ‘bout me, forgetting ‘bout money

They helped my dreams, they are my stars

I’ve found the land of milk and honey
