The Fatal Escape
You've joined us
In the box full of lies and deceit
Where everything is alright
Because everyone is ignorant
The people around us each
Make this up
Their lies filling the void
Lies of love, lies of caring
We've run into this before
The wall that blocks
But everytime one small chunk
Falls and crumbles
What lies within us
Scares you away
To a place of deep rot
Babbling about the loss of hope
When all of us know it's true
We are all liars
Liar, running fast don't look back
Before they ruin you
Holding tight every night
Afraid to let go
And no one cares
'Cause you're the same
Decaying organic matter
As the walls surrounding us
Nothing has changed
Except the illusion
Of self-worth
It's hard to take
But when it's all you have
You run with it
Into the night
All they find of you
Is a line of dreams
Leading no where
You've made the escape
The fatal escape
That twists and burns
Into the lies explode
And the truth is found
The world will never see
What really was
We all took the poison
The lie the sweet liquor made
those who don't know
Are full of lust
Those who know
Aare full of disgust
Fueled by the fury
You cannot see
You don't know
All that could be
All that was
And all that is
An endless life
You can't miss
