Lie to myself - 11/09/10

lie to myself to make it okay,

running from my fears to see another day,

cowardice coursing coldly in each vein,

so i run to shield myself from pain.

inside a rage, so cold, so raw,

but no longer do i know what i'm fighting for,

which side i'm on or where i stand,

this aint the future i had planned!

slowly collect myself, get onto my feet,

i dont react well when faced with defeat,

i can't stop now, i can't repick my side,

on the battlefield there's no place to hide,

from yourself, even from your enemies,

same as you cant hide from your thoughts or memories,

late at night when you're all on your own,

you regret things you've done or chances blown,

but regretting things wont make them go away,

they're gonna be there no matter what you say,

no matter what you think or no matter what you do,

live with your regrets because they're a part of you
