A Vague Truth

by Falling Up   Sep 23, 2006




You want it to happen.
exactly what u wished for
Then u realize, it was only a plane high in the sky
Passing by as your dreams slowly faded away.

You started becoming Vague
I couldnt grasp why it was I was crying over you
The indications were more than just your words
The bluntness of reality began to set in

Walking through the city
unfamiliar people rushing by
You contradict my feelings and thoughts
your as fake as their polyester suites
and their briefcases filled with lies

Whats the difference between a lie and a truth
It somehow seems to take on the grayest shade
False stiletto felt real in my heart
But I somehow take pleasure from pain?

Walking away hurts more, then staying and living a lie
Because I'd rather
hold onto something fake that makes me smile
Then drown myself in the tears of truth,
As I watch you slip away, further now

But a lie cant last forever,
And my dear, that planes about to land
So pack your things, and ill say goodbye
To the best thing I never had

So long, to the grayest shade of love you gave me
I somehow still felt like a pallet of colors,
Being painted into something abstract
That no one really could understand or grasp

But the lies, the truths, and the truths the lies,
entwined, to form that polyester love,
that I wished so much to be real
which was nothing more, then a plane passing by
And then I watched as my dreams faded away
