deception made holy

It's all a sham, Can't I
Pretend I'm all fine?
I've had my fair share of lies, but I
I still yearn for something
Genuine. Even when my heart took a
Ton of beating, I stop
Peering through shadows, it starts
writhing, A fool, I am, still lying and living.

People cross my eyes, why
Do we gotta feel superficial?
Bitching about it is nonsensical,
Ditch it for something practical.
As I continue to pour my heart
To the things I love,
To the things I make,
To the things I really want
To be not wholesome fakes,
Sometimes I cry inside,
Because I got no guide,
Because when I'm overwhelmed by truth and lies, I lose my mind and my heart divides.

I spoke to the Devil, he said,
"Are you fine with all this?
My power covers everything you touch and love."

And so now, I
Still stand here in the same spot
After all these years.
Think I'm done swimming through lies,
Now I stand to wait
For my fear to dissipate,

Until then, I will stand here to avoid the deception made holy, growling terrifyingly ahead of me.
