Lies
Lies are bitter
Some are sweet.
They keep us moving
Give us the will to live.
Tell me good lies
Lies that will make me laugh-smile
Whisper one in my ear
that will make me reach for the stars.
Just keep on lying,
Cheerfully,
I will keep on flying.
Who knows,
Maybe there is a place for dreamers
over those mountains.
A place where heartache-hardship Sound like foreign words.
But,
Until such a place is found,
we will continue to lie
conceal the truth to our children
And they,
to their children.
Who knows,
If they believe
They might wake up one day
And realise
That this is it,
This is the one place
we have been searching for
all along.
