Twisted Maze

Non-conforming impresses me
Humbleness is sexy (if you can't see)

Arrogance is not even worth my precious time
Too many people nowadays - are making true love a crime

Too many mundanes play games and lie
Too many men lead their lives with ill-placed pride

Where is the integrity and honesty? Where did those days go?
Where are the actions of people who SAY they wanna show?

Where is the teamwork? Where are the compromises?
Where are all the little things? Where are all the surprises?

Whatever happened to nice things that got said?
What happened to loving with your heart AND head?

I want rarity, originality, loyalty, integrity, and truth
I want to feel young with my partner and enjoy our youth

Whatever happened to communication nowadays?
Why must they lock good souls in this twisted maze?
