lies

Give me some peace,
For my mind is not at rest.
I thrash within my inner walls
In an attempt to break through
This prison that surrounds me.
The walls that I made
To secure myself,
Hold me captive.

This world's a lie.
It's just a mere illusion
That you make for yourself
To protect your heart till it starts to die.

Give me some freedom,
Just a little space.
Do that I can escape your thick lies,
See the world I wanna face.

Sometimes I wanna cry,
And stop when my years die.
Searching for a high
yet unknown to all.

An exit is all I ask for,
For I cannot fit in this odd world
That lies to your face,
And laughs at your back.

Everything's a lie.
I try to fly high
But these lies keep holding me back.
Why did I even try?

I can't call this place evil,
For I would be at fault,
Because I let myself get carried away
And did not guard my heart's vault.
