[devil_in_heaven]

the world is changed
the view is different but not that different from
how was it before? just a minor alteration here and there

there are textures i've never noticed and
there are people i never gave enough time and
many who have disappeared

sometimes when you make a wish
you don't think it'll come true: do they ever?
but now i know, the truth is so simple.

be careful what you wish for!
what would happen if you got it? most people wouldn't dream
that it could come true

but truth can come at the expense of freedom
so does freedom come at the cost of truth?
when after all, that is the price we all pay...

so when i look around i know
that the world is changed and the people;
in this new world; they've shown themselves while the others just hide away, fade away,

slip away, disappear into that place
we like to think is home, that moment
where we can forget what hurts and create what's good

yet all the while, lurking beneath, in the corridors of inevitability
that price accumulating, ticking away
until the day we pay our dues.

i'm still wondering how it all fits together but
i'm knowing just the same that seeking the answer defeats the purpose
of finding the right questions; so...

the world is changed
the people in it have proven that to me, and eerily enough when
the veil of ignorance was torn asunder, i proved it to myself.
