Sweet Lies
The higher you fly the harder you fall Everything has its time and its place Tell me if you love any given extreme Love until it pours out of your face The more intellect the more depressed Fully enlightened you become mindless Being too kind inevitably causes abuse What becomes prevalent is good balance You take on a practical view of things Yet goals are of dreams and aspirations Beautiful girl, I know what you are And yet I hold on to this idea of you The world is visceral and unforgiving How my brain paints you vindicates it So, I see what the role of the lie is As I smile in the wonder of the truth

What are words without understanding and what is understanding without sense?
