Clarity

There is a time when

                   you find out who the people that are by your side really are.


This is that time...

                    ...for you and I.
                    I see your true colors.

                 


The past clashes brutally with the present,
murdering the image of who you were.


                   You like to oggle at all girls who are "pretty"
(but it's nothing really, it's normal, since they're attractive...)


                   You care about your "looks"...and mine too...
(but you're not vain...and I'm just out of shape)


                   You care about being accepted by the "cool"
(but you have a strong mind and convictions...)


*Yet you insist you love me
       and you freeze me outside your walls
*Yet you talk about respect
       and break your promises

You're not the boy you were. You're not the man you had planned to be.
You're your lies and your fears, you're your goodness and your care.
You're keeping the best of me, while I waste alongside the very worst of me,

And we're quite about to be finished.
