Better
© 2003 by Jennifer Farwell

 

It brought me here and left you there;
Made things right and kept you wrong.
So relearn all you thought you knew,
This time it's for the better.

It's all pretend — pretend it's real;
That's how life works and what we do.
Cling to illusion and think it fulfils,
Believe it's something better.

We invest so much in all that's false;
Truth is neglected and abandoned.
Stunting growth through intersection,
Apart we become better.

Deception lies within our nature;
Not of us but of ourselves.
If you could take the time to see,
You'd know you could be better.
