The Truth

I've prayed for light to shine over my life
Guess what I saw?
All the lies lived by a beautiful wife
I saw the truth and wanted more

I've prayed for the sun to turn my way
I was ready
My emotions got placed on an artistic display
Nothing was steady
Anymore

I've prayed for the moon over my sea
And when I looked
The person I saw in the mirror wasn't me
Evidently I got hooked

I've prayed for the stars to give me direction
I turned away at first
But once I looked I saw great imperfection
A hungry soul dying of thirst

I've prayed to God to open my eyes
Bravely in search for the truth
No more covered in hurt and lies
In search for the things that sooth
