Lies

The lies
Among the skies
Have me looking into your eyes
Learning of my so deprived
Wellness of "never die"'s
I don't mean to pry
But you seem derived
In that you want to fly
But I see all these flies
Swarming at the light
Mesmerized to die
It's all one big lie
I can't look away from your eyes
I'm struggling with shame in this life
Now I am a fly
Flying into the light
Because it looks so easy
It looks so clear
I'm warned of likely-hood to die
But that's alright
Who said I enjoyed my life?
