Harlequin

With a word become estranged
You believed a lie that kept you going all this time
Cast a shadow, shed a tear and defect all that you have ever known
You wanted this, then prayed for this
Kept this dream alive
Then were sad to find that low and behold I awaited you
I abandoned you when the pieces did not fit
Who's sacrifice was this? Laugh as you think
Laugh as you fade into this world, so untamed
To seek the answers
To the questions that remained
Trying to adjust to this world
I am so afraid
Even though I was the one
Growing weaker every day
You were the one that caved
You were the light from flame
Kept all of these tears that you found, but I won't
This is my hell and you are not invited
What else did you find? Hid the simple truth
From an unsuspecting mind
Laugh as you think how you are out of lies
Now the smiling face it must suffice
The face I cannot resist
Laugh as you think, laugh as you fade into this world, so afraid
Gutted, beaten, cored, staring down the hole for what's misplaced
Mask has been destroyed, falling down the hole is your disgrace
Want this, loathe this, want is the need to explain
Want this, loathe this, how you loathed the pain
World with no god, without expectancy
Tear strips and watch you fold, the only certainty
Laugh as you think, laugh as you fade into this world
So untamed
Where it all but seems you have lost your way
They know you are a fake
Without warning it came
Despite trying in vain
But you never did try and now it is too late
To solve this mystery
There is one piece missing
