Concept


This concept we call love
What's the hurry
Build your hopes like doves
Ready to fly but vision's blurry

Lost in the depths
We just want to love now, now, now
Without knowing the (inconvenient) truths
Remember – you reap what you sow 

*Inspired by The Danish Girl, and the love they share. Everyday I'm learning to love better (only to those who deserve it, of course)

Truth



Nobody said it was easy
But no, nobody knows the reality
We built these walls with our lies
As they spin, get spun, they become our ally

You ask, "Who's the bad guy?"
Your reflection starts to cry
You say, "This is my life"

So don't say you're a friend
When you think it's just a trend
Your lack of respect shines through
Oh baby-boo
Unclip my wings,
Feel the joy that stings,
For the truth will set us free


*Inspired by a few quotes I came across while doing my leadership essay on authenticity (ha!):

“Anyone who doesn’t take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.” – Albert Einstein
"In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act." - George Orwell
"Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty." - Stephen King
