Truth

by

Sekhem Psikor Strecker

You eyes are blank
You sit on your own
There's nothing that catches your fall
Everyone loves you if you lie
But nobody cares at all
You weave for yourself
A world of faults
From the shattered reverie
It's all made beautiful together
But you will never be free

Taste your blood
Stop breathing
Your jaded eyes give it away
So exhale
Take it all back
And build yourself a truth

Your whisper's unheard
You cover your face
There's no reason for you to be here
Everyone loves you if you're fake
But nobody makes it clear
You hide yourself
Come out when they want
The choice is never your own
Life is what you make it
So reap the seeds you've sown

Taste your blood
Stop breathing
Your jaded eyes give it away
So exhale
Take it all back
And build yourself a truth

Your hands are cold
You shiver in vain
There's nothing that melts the ice
Everyone loves you if you smile
But nobody there looks twice
You cry for yourself
With your dry-eyed tears
But it's hidden deep inside
No one's allowed to be close to you
You never let anyone try
