Painted Lies

Fate tells lies
Dreams Disguise
Walls fall down
Hopes revise 
My thirst is hungry
My eyes are dry
The ignition is running
Yet we still have time
The feet are grounded
The past stands still
The future is anxious
I feel ill
Death walks by; a steady pace
Life goes 'bout a cheating race
My cheeks are burning 
feelings are numb
The world I knew is crashing down
What I thought I loved is set ablaze
True passions stand through all the haze
I move a step back to take it in
Colors fade revealing temptation and sin
The two components upon which this world is built
nothing left now but a web of defeat and guilt
I close my eyes
And repaint my life
Refill my heart
Rewind the time
When I awaken I'll be all smiles
For all is masked for just a while.
