To me the more you believe the more disappointments that follow
The more you trust, the more they make you desire to achieve
At the end of the day, it's all fake
The world is fake
With fake people
And fake relationships
It's all the same
I carry the same heavy burdens everywhere I go .
Scars upon scars of longings of the past
Making solitude my sole companion became the last resort
In the dystopian society
I was forced to exist in
I could have just ran and escaped my world
At that point I realized that I didn't need to escape this planet
I needed to run from myself
In the midst of my mind
Wallowing on the graves of my dreams
Tortured to the point of no return
Silence became my friend in this midst of friends
The cold bark I chewed through
Leaving a sore feeling in my mouth
How did I become this person
This charity that passes herself off as a living creature
It moves and breathes and talks and bleeds
And yet she dead, Dead in herself and dead in thought
Forced to dance by the mocking music of her very own society
Will she ever be freed from her bondage
Will she ever experience that colour she use to know
The same when the most important person is with you
When everywhere becomes as bright as day
Yes that same color of happiness.
To her happiness is the door, the door that unlocks the gates of the unknown
Waiting for her to go and discover
If only I wasn't bound by the chains of my thoughts
It would have been the turning point.
