Faking Life

Through this mirrored image
feeling, was my head so oddly
reeling, not aware of floor or
ceiling, kneeling and crying out.
All the past I'd spent denying,
watching others loose in trying,
the time I wasted spent in
crying, where could truth be
found?

Joy could not be found in money,
don't put your faith in somebody,
not in attempts to be funny, life
seems incomplete.  Why doubt
the life He offers, when all the
world is not enough?  Who knows
if we've got time, we cannot wait
'till it's too late.

Searching for someone else to
blame, hoping I won't go insane,
selfish pride my only gain, faking
sanity.  The charade said I was
fine, knowing riches would be
mine, I chose to face the cross
the sign, I gave my future up.
