The Lies We Live

There is a certain emptiness we spend our whole lives trying to evade. We hope to find meaning in material things, but we are disappointed when we realize they are meager distractions. And I was hoping that maybe if we would let ourselves be sad, and stop being so ashamed all the time, then maybe we could do something amazing.
What I mean to say is, I'm tired of lying.
If you want the truth, then this is it.
