Array ( [sid] => 141909 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Enough Said [time] => 2008-04-27 12:59:33 [hometext] => NEVER WILL I LOOK BACK AGAIN [bodytext] => living in a world where being yourself is never enough
i always thought that following was good
never did i know that you have to protect yourself
always in my life i was taught to follow
the person in front of you
i never could explain what was happening
never saw what was right in front of me
never took the time to realize what was wrong
but in some weird way i had the time to put the mask on
no one saw me fading away
i couldn't even recognize my own reflection
i only saw the girl who fell to worship something so wrong
i only saw what wasn't good enough
and when i saw that girl
i only knew i had to keep changing
i saw what people didn't want
as i walked away in despair
i put that mask back on
i put the lies and cheats back into play
i even got what no one else could get
becoming someone who everyone looked up to
the pride and fame was so mind blowing
so i just keep going
i turned my back on everything i knew
even the people who gave their all for me
i only let people in if they didn't know the truth
i only wanted it to be covered up by lies
i never have time to tell you whats really going on
i don't want you to pry at me
i only want you to see the lies i've kept so deeply in me
i only walk the straight line you lead me down
i never try to stop you because in a way i'm always helping you
i never have time for those who know me best
i only have time for you
time for someone who i don't know
time for someone who i don't love
just someone who i worship
never the time for myself [comments] => 2 [counter] => 205 [topic] => 31 [informant] => babeeGii [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

the point about lies i see far to often, and the concept of change between never having time for self and doing as what is wanted by others, is rather amusing to me. simple truth, know people first. that alone will get you where you should be. failure to do so will bring aimless trubbles to the world turning you and everyone around you into "trolls" (as the internet claims certain people).

learn then do. ^_^

but i like this one so i supose i should stop making fun (as if you noticed how i was). ^_^
keep it up.
