Mask the Truth

In an unbiased truth
The end result is
What truly is
Not what we wish it to be

The truth hurts
Only to liars
Lying to themselves
Lying to the world

We all know
What your truth is
It is a lonely life
Masked in fantasy

Riding the coat tails
To fame’s top floor
Has not worked for you
So keep up the façade


When you come home
Hopefully humbled by
Disappointment’s bitter taste
Maybe then you will admit it

You are alone
And life is not fair
Not even to those
Who lie about it
