A life lived in a lie

There are people aplenty
Who see me everyday
Some like me in the morning
And some during the rest of the day

To those that think they know me
You couldn't be more wrong
The few that really do, are a myth now
Its indeed been long

Some say I'm the perfect man
Oh boy, I hear myself say
I wish I could be just that
But its been a while and I'm astray

Changes aplenty, nothing's the same
The longing for the days gone by
Its all gone, its here no more
Only memories of yore flash by

Questioning what I learn from mistakes
Wishing I could go back in time
If only that one moment, I could undo
I'd not be here, but another place and time

The crisp sunshine after a heavy shower
The air so clear, the colors bend in the rain
The smell of a new life...
I can dream on, but all in vain

Its here now, the moment of truth
Beckoning forever and I can't deny no more
Sailing the oceans has never been easy
Something within must begin to roar

- Dated November 10th, 2010 3:00 am as I listen to Default's "Live a lie"
The title inspired by the song, and the post by the lyrics:

Still don't see much of me giving in
Much too strong to live outside these sins
Feeling like I'm taken lightly, think you see right through me
Words of those that still despise me, think it's eating me, you're dreaming
