Lies

Pretend all you want
so you can sleep at night
until the dream implodes
in the harsh light of day

Pretend all you want
that the horizon is endless
swim in circles
and say the world is round

Pretend all you want
that freedom exists
that choice is a fact
that life isn't bound

Pretend all you want 
until you smack and bleed
against the glass sides
of your goldfish bowl
