Lies by Stanley Naber
Lies hurt more
than the truth
why do I live
in self pity
and expect disappointment
more then optimism
or does enjoyment
lead me to new
worlds which I can not
live on
the air is getting
thin and I want to
stay for some time
too bad I can not
live in my dreams
for then utopia would be
reached wouldn't it
than the truth
why do I live
in self pity
and expect disappointment
more then optimism
or does enjoyment
lead me to new
worlds which I can not
live on
the air is getting
thin and I want to
stay for some time
too bad I can not
live in my dreams
for then utopia would be
reached wouldn't it
This poem is just about how I think, and how I often get carried away and build little lies inside my head that cannot become real.

| this song is so good i cryed the frist time i read it and every body says the truth hurts but this is so true lies hurt more. - brittany | |
| Living in a web of lies just makes a bigger spider want to come along and eat you. Tell the truth,no matter how much it hurts,how much pride or dignity you might lose or what people with think of you. Alot of people live a life based on lies because it keeps them "busy" and away from ACTUAL reality. In the end,you don't win,ever. Living a lie isn't lving at all. You might as well be dead. And this is coming from someone who is hated by ALOT because I don't hold any punches back. I don't believe "keeping it under the rug" and LYING for alterior motives helps any situation and it NEVER will,ever. Be for real and have a heart and live with compassion or just die,really. - Just | |
