To Live, No Lie.

Left trying to make sense of this mind

My head is screwed and lost behind

Keep wanting to catch a break

God knows I don't mean to lose faith

Wide awake with prayers floating

Sweet hymns of candy coating

The taste of bittersweet in my mouth

Still sour thinking it'll all go South

The need for something more

But all I'm left with is a bore

Why must I keep doubting this power?

When I should be asleep around this hour

Time is not a friend of mine

Even in the dark, the glare still will shine

These words are all I have to give

All I want is to live, no lie.
