Caught up in the fable

Lost in an ocean of lies

I can see you see right through me

When I look into your eyes

Can you see right back into

Miles of restless nights?

I fear that you can see too much

So I'm turning off the lights

I still feel your glare,

Even when you're not here

My skin starts crawling fearfully

Whenever you come near

Conditioned instincts;

I cower and hide

I told you I was honest

But truthfully, I lied

All in all, all it is,

Is a game of seek and find 

But I don't want to see the truth

So I render myself blind 

Living serenely as I reside,

Quietly revolting inside.

I'm looking for someone 

Real enough with whom I can confide.
