Show this face to her
Show that face to them
But a different one to yourself?
Or keep fighting for which one to consume within?
Which one is true?
Both or None of them?
Lying to yourself,
telling the truth to others?
I never trust the way I feel
Walking on feathers,
Wearing broken beer bottle heels
Climbing up the hills,
in these heels .
Waiting to fall down with each step
And bust my kneecaps , so dizzy
Round and round my head , looking down I never trekked up in the first place.
What's better?
Live in a lie ,
be good and guilty
Or live carefree ,
To judge and get judged to be hurt?
What to choose from wrong and right
Be the person to fight ,
Or live in the wild to roam and survive?
What to pick , how to do?
Wearing green contact,
right seems like clear river.
Wearing blue contact,
Same seems a shark.
In this game of colours ,
Everything becomes seamless,
Truth camouflaged in lies,
Can't fall apart!
Everything is a facade
Some quotes true , some false
Both are right yet both are wrong.
Like formulae, which one to put in the equation to make it right?
Life will teach you , or keep failing at the math of life.
