Searching for the truth
In these days of cold deception
But what is truth?
I ponder with Pontius Pilate
One side says be analytical
The other screams stay political
Correct???
Incorrect???
Right???
Wrong???
Truth???
Lies???
Society feeds us just enough information
To keep our minds swimming in stagnation
So much so it hurts
But so does the truth
So they say

These stairs they are very familiar
I have traveled them hundreds of times
For at the top of these stairs lives the one
To whom I had pledged my undying love
As I pause at the bottom of the stairway
Never sure what the next step might bring
My thoughts race back maybe 500 days
To what the top of the stairs had proclaimed
It was on that day that I found out
She was in love with somebody else
My heart skipped a beat
Then stopped on that day
And my world turned to ruin around me
I walked without aim for nearly 300 days
Trying to find meaning among the debris
Then by chance once again our paths crossed
As she was sifting thru her
The way it moves
Its every action
Is completely entrusted to you
You give arrogance its meaning
As you pull on each cord
You know you are in total control
You are the best
You keep telling yourself
While preparing for each evenings show
But sometimes the best
Even the best of the best
Get caught up in the dramatic flow
As you make your puppet spin
And then a leap and a spin
Your thoughts they are going to and fro
Then without any warning
The head dips down quickly
As the feet shoot up in the air
And by your thoughtless manipulation
The strings that once gave the life illusion
Have now become like hangmen nooses
Quickly
