True Story
I'm avoiding
with food
I'm avoiding
with TV
I'm avoiding
getting deeper
into me
I'm avoiding
with sex
I'm avoiding
with music
I've avoiding
getting real and
you can't see
cuz I can put on a show
that's better than the real thing
and no one will ever know
of whom I sing
you're avoiding
with me
you're avoiding
with a drink
you're avoiding
sharing what you
feel or think
you're avoiding
yourself
you're avoiding
the words
you're avoiding
avoiding
what you heard
and you can put on a show
like an actor on a stage
so no one will ever know
your journal page
whatever is going on
deep within your heart and mind
is hidden in such a way
that no one will ever find
the true story of our lives
might push too many away
so we put on our best faces
and just forget yesterday
no wonder why we die
we never stay connected
with the flow of energy
the true path is rejected
for the momentary rush
of being accepted
by others lost in fear
full of secrets protected
by avoiding
with food
and avoiding
with a drink
or a drug or
or your money
or your mask
keep avoiding
yourself
and avoiding
the true way
living real
people won't
even ask
where you went when you leave
no one will notice you're gone
no one will kno your were here
and life goes on
avoiding
