Shadow of the bear.

Isn't Fair.

Like clouds don't care

We're just there.



Falling lies, failed to be true.

I'll never be just like you.

Your faded black, my shining blue.

It's not worth it to be just like you.



In disguise,

Feed me lies.

Through peasants eyes,

Bittersweet goodbyes.



Falling lies, failed to be true.

I'll never be just like you.

Your faded black, my shining blue.

It's not worth it to be just like you.

The author's comments:
Another inspired by Kurt Cobain's style. This one's about wanting to fit in to society's lies, then realizing the secrets behind it which make it not worth it. And realizing that you're an individual, worth more than a lie.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
