I claim to be so righteous, but I'm just like everyone else. I was judging you, and I realized just how big a lie I lead. I truly wish you could follow me in my walk through brilliance, but I've grown so much hollower and the paths have all grown dense with vines of green, the color of envy. I'm not the same child that I once was. I left my compassion on the side of the road
when I learned the power of ego and confidence, all to please you. All my desire and all my innocence burned away, just the evil remains, just the judgement remains.
And here I stand king of the mountain, all alone, surrounded by pain that I brought on myself.
i found i lost myself in search of you.
I'm so tired but you probably don't even know what I mean. I'm full of contradictions and hypocrisies. I'm so tired I don't even know which side of the fighting I'm on;
and if I wanted no part of it, you d say I was doing something wrong. Today was just like yesterday and the day before. I've been taking myself so damn seriously and I can't
recall what for. I can t feel the sunshine anymore. I'm so tired of bitching to myself and wrapping up my emotions to please everyone else.I'm so tired of bitching at all because life becomes so cynical when you're waiting to fall. I'm so inspired but you know how short-lived inspiration can be. I'll brag about my self-improvement which just ends up lost inside of me.
I've no faith in justice, corrupted by wealth.
I've no faith in my peers, only a fading faith inside myself.
