The Desert of Lies

The reminders of the grief-stricken past Has stricken us insane and has done so so fast (has done us wrong so vast in vain) Wingless and observing the scene before my eyes, Wandering through the desert of lies, of lies, of lies Chainless and looking for the key To the gate of lovingkindness liberty Deserted by bewilderment once more, But I’m willing to soar, even with this aching sore… I don’t want to lie to you anymore… In the desert of lies is where I explore I don’t need to tell you I’m sorry…I’m not sorry for my rain Because you can see it in my eyes of sorrow and pain That I don’t want to end up like The desert of lies in which you hike The desert of lies… The desert of lies… Bittersweet lullabies Led to your grief-stricken goodbyes In the desert of lies The desert of lies Desert of lies Of lies Lies The survivors of the deserty terrain Continue to thrive till the day they die oh so softly Distress in progress transforming itself into rain, Wandering through the desert of lies and tundra freely Chainless and looking for the key To the gate of lovingkindness liberty Deserted by bewilderment once more, But I’m willing to soar, even with this aching sore… I don’t want to lie to you anymore… In the desert of lies is where I explore I don’t need to tell you I’m sorry…I’m not sorry for my rain Because you can see it in my eyes of sorrow and pain That I don’t want to end up like The desert of lies in which you hike The desert of lies… The desert of lies… Bittersweet lullabies Led to your grief-stricken goodbyes In the desert of lies The desert of lies Desert of lies Of lies Lies The weeds of affliction has grown tall as it grows upon the walls It’s to the point where it’s overwhelming my soul The seeds of serenity is drowning by wistful waterfalls It’s to the point where it’s harming me as a whole Chainless and looking for the key To the gate of lovingkindness liberty Deserted by bewilderment once more, But I’m willing to soar, even with this aching sore… I don’t want to lie to you anymore… In the desert of lies is where I explore I don’t need to tell you I’m sorry…I’m not sorry for my rain Because you can see it in my eyes of sorrow and pain That I don’t want to end up like The desert of lies in which you hike The desert of lies… The desert of lies… Bittersweet lullabies Led to your grief-stricken goodbyes In the desert of lies The desert of lies Desert of lies Of lies Lies Frozen in utter fear In the desert of lies Again, I shed a tear In the desert of lies No room for cheer In the desert of lies I frown ear to ear In the desert…of… Lies that drowns out my heart of love
