Musings of a Messed Up Mind - 11. Peace - Truth - Alone In A Crowd
Peace
Is a state of grace, of mind
That I can never achieve
It sits up there on a shelf so high
I can never reach.
Only a word, or an idea
For others but not for me
The ghosts that haunt me tell me so
Who else can I believe?
Truth
Who is the one that judges my truth?
Are you the one to say?
What’s wrong or a lie, who lives or dies
Who gave you the right anyway?
My life is my own, I’ve earned that right
I’ve more than paid my share
To live in the way that’s right for me
Why do you even care?
You want the truth, do you dare?
To ask me what I think
Oh no you don’t, I know you won’t
I’d push you to the brink.
Alone in a Crowd
I’ll never be part of the group
Always set apart
I don’t belong, it’s so clear
I just never saw it before
People will say ‘that's not the truth’
But we all know that it is
Be honest - see what’s in front of you
And when you turn back ….
