Oh how we lie to ourselves
From other people’s lies
Oh how convince ourselves
From other people’s conviction
Swept along on
One big tidal wave
Of emotion
Words are all we have
But do they really show
The truth
Of the emotion
Or are they
Cloak and dagger
To the realities of the situation
I say I’m fine
But do you believe me
Why shouldn’t you
Believe me
I always mean what I say
I do
Don’t I?
You always mean what you say
Don’t you?
In this World of constant
Broken promises
How can we trust?
We trust
And we get it wrong
So how can we trust ourselves
Oh how we lie to ourselves
From other people’s lies
Oh how we convince ourselves
From other people’s conviction
Swept along on
One big tidal wave
Of emotion
Where’s the truth
Of any situation
Not emotion.
The truth
Lost
In translation!
In something!!!
Lost in emotion.
