Life Lies

Life lies so many times 
I have heard them all but still i fall,
into the fantasy my mind races 
my heart pounds with the thought
then its gone as fast as it came
as the lie of life is my shackle and chain

It pulls me so low it drowns my soul
for never has one word utterd or said
formed into a sentence that did not turn to truth
just another white lie or false hope instead.

what if the whole world spoke up shouted out the truth
would we all be dead?
as it seems we just keep accepting that lies are part of living
that deception and untrustworthy beings walk this world are mother land

Life lies is the destruction that will take us to dust 
the universe is watching it will be us to go first.
as who will save those who have cheated and lied 
to keep themselfs from loosing any pride

Pride what pride will you take when its all gone
as life lies has brought us to the end of are race and kind
the time is coming to erase this world,
all of us know it we made the choice together
life lies are unity are bond that has cost us forever.
whos hand will you hold onto now,
or will that be are awakening that moment 
of life that its being taken from all..
lies of all are lifes has cost us the end of are time.
