One Big Facade
It’s like a daily dose of sugar-
laced poison
Bittersweet agony that came
out of no where
Like being forced to stare down
a loaded gun
And trusting your darkest hour
not to pull the trigger
Like your worst enemy with
your heart in their hands
And you only want to see them
as your old best friend
Like watching matches strike
against kerosene
And only doing it to see the
lights flash
It’s just like being surrounded
by flames
With bullets flying past your
mind's eye
With your heart in the hands of
a traitor
And all you choose to see and
feel and live
Is the warmth the flames give
The insane feat of lead missing
your flesh
And your heart’s false security
with someone else
It’s all a fabricated scenario
It’s the one thing you really
know
And it’s all you ever want life to
be
