Go on ahead, and take a good look at your friend
And reminisce back to all those past times I preached about
“never giving in”
To people from far distant places
Places promised never to revisit even in my head
Like, a social status full of disguised photos
That hides the ugly truth that runs through my blood underneath my skin
But, with a big fake smile
I can play the actor and pretend
Like it’s all so damn important
But boy by now, you better know who’re your true friends
Because it’s hilarious
And it’s sad
It’s comedic
And it’s tragic
What loneliness can do to a man
And I could blame it all on time
But the truth is… This is the loneliest I’ve ever been
So, go on ahead and take a good look at me now,
The one that choked on his own words
THE HYPOCRITE
(ALWAYS STAY TRUE TO YOUR SELF / NO MATTER WHAT THE CONSEQUENCE IS)
