Broken Bells

Hidden behind a loveless lie An institution held up so high Predefined wrongs and predefined rights Them, trapped inside a showcased life They say in heaven a match is made And will of God a man obeys No matter what, the toll it takes They must endure for culture’s sake If love is lost, they shall not crave And if they do, they must be saved A sin to long, the pain to stay A truth ignored till it fades away And thus the years, they pass them by Hidden tears and force-full smiles Two lives, two stories and wasted time In the righteous life of a loveless lie.
