A Forest of Truths and Lies

If you don't believe in fantasy places, Told by the world's people Listen up and listen well, For what I tell you now will change your thoughts. I was in a forest, Promised for Riches Instead I find Hedges, tearing through my skin, I realize I've been here, but then I grin And I fight back the tears, As I fight the years that go by Just to find the same stairs again I am still fighting and I am still sane, The blood drains from my body As everyone comes and goes, I choose to close my Eyes And to let it all fade.... Into a Forest Of Truths And Lies
