Every little piece of this
amazing contradiction
makes me smile
on the inside.
I have see behind
all of those little inhibitions,
slight micro expressions,
little, tiny lies
that compromise
your comprehension.
I’m telling you the sky is blue
and you believe it’s true
because you want to.
It’s so easy to cover up,
those little insecurities these days.
A little retail therapy,
a couple pills
and it just goes away.
We have the universe at our fingertips,
so why should we have to admit
we’re still scared of the dark,
when the daylight goes away?
You’re trusting
and that’s why I’m smiling, too.
Just so easy to confuse.
Never will admit
you’ve been manipulated;
that would be abuse.
Easier to claim you held that place,
that you believe that point of view,
right up until the one
that you choose
is killing you.
Cut and still deny
you’re bleeding on the inside,
so proudly being blind.
Let me help…
…oh, never mind.
You look great!
You’re going to be fine.
At present your course
couldn’t get much worse.
I might as well
sit back and watch the show.
Anytime now,
if you want,
you can let go…
