Tell me your story
I can tell by the look in your eyes
That you are hiding pain
You should know by now
That pride destroys happiness
Perhaps it is the guilt and the shame
That paints the fake smile on your face
To cover up the mistakes of yesterdays
The past cannot be changed
Compliments are fleeting and so is praise
Adoration and attention will distract you
From the things in your life that need to change
Pleasure makes it easy to get carried away
But to move forward in life
You have to find the exit in the labyrinth of regrets
This is what traps people into playing mind games
You know that you’re in a self destruct mode
When you don’t trust yourself
That is what makes it hard
To have faith in someone else
If you’re always testing waters
You get stuck in the shallow end
When memories of the past failings
Come flooding back
Do you feel inspired to reinvent yourself?
To love and to be loved is purpose of being a man
Aren’t you tired of pretending that you’re perfect?
We are all flawed and all lives have an end
Be happy and live your life while you can
