Man of the World

Man of the world:

His eyes were the trick to his disguise 
His lies were the key to his guide
As he lay there deep with in the lie
He realized 
Nor he nor anyone else could relinquish him of the pain he'd hide
Of the pain he'd hide
So if he fell astray
If he fell behind
No one would be left to help him fly
