2Hi! It's been so long since I updated.. but this one sounds decent.
My boyfriend just broke up with me, and even though I agree we probably make better friends I was still upset, you know? And I started thinking about how people lie all the time and how we're never satisfied with anything, and I tried thinking about nature and how it always made me feel better and made everything seem okay, and bam! Lies Of Men.
Lies Of Men
I do not understand
The lies of men
The promises long broken
Trust long gone
I do not understand
The world's lovely grace
With green so vivid
and waters so serene
I most certainly do not understand
How they live in harmony
The filthy greed
And
Darkened man
With the beautiful gift of life
And
Melodic nature
Why does the earth
The pure
Not reject these things
These things of man
When we do nothing but destroy her
With our ways?
With our constant need
Want, want, want
Needing more even as she gives all she can
More than we could possibly use?
The lies of men
Who say
That they are good
That they love you
That they will always protect you
Forever
I no longer have the strength
To believe them
I will not pretend to understand
The need, the want, the greed
The lies
I will not trust them
So easily
Anymore
I was naïve, I believed
That the world was good
And everything was magical
Perhaps the beautiful vivid serene perfect pure magical world
Accepts
These lies of men
Simply because it itself
Pureness and
Beauty
Are also lies,
Lies of men,
With a mask of vivid green and serene blue
To hide the black
The hopelessness
Of this wonderful magical beautiful
'Gift of life'?
The perfect, ugly, vivid, black, pure, greedy, magical
Lies of men.
No, its not entirely about my recent breakup, although that's what got the ball rolling. A lot of people have deceived me, tricked me, hurt me. lied to me. The beauty of the wonderful world doesn't do much. The magic of the world from the eyes of a child does nothing to help with reality.
