Who.

Why.

Who are they to tell us how?

Who are they to make us doubt?

They feed us lies,

We feed them back.

Cold and unabated.

We have so many lies,

That where there’s truth

It goes unrecognized.

The small sneak through the many,

Slipping through the cracks.

They trickle through like waterfalls,

Then stop.

Reverse.

They leave

The same way they came in

But slower now,

Until you find

No trace of truth

It’s all been drained,

No more

No more

No suffering

Just sweet slick lies

Sugar-coated

Hiding the harsh

The right

The truth

Phantoms of love,

Shadows of hate,

Exactly what you want to hear,

Exactly what you want to see

No beatings

No tears,

Fluffy padded sweetness…

Take it all away.

Take joy away.

Take sad away.

Take mad

And glad

And fear away.

Take life away.

Far away.

Away from the undeserving.
