It's time to get away from all the things that are bringing me down;
time to simply walk away and leave them there on the ground.
Lies and deceit, yes the wolves are howling at the door;
but I am done with them all and don't want any more.
.
Trying to be a good person and help when you can;
but you have to remember the animal you are helping is called man.
Some are good and kind and just injured by life;
some others tho are hunters and will cause you only strife.
.
They are waiting and watching, predators of the worse kind;
they will use and abuse you and mess with your mind.
With a smile on their face and a lilt to their voice;
they can sure make you think you have made a good choice.
.
But when the smoke finally clears and the haze is all gone;
that is when you may realize that your assumptions have been wrong.
Take heed of the warnings that your mind sends to you;
Be very careful is about the best you can do.
.
If you find yourself sinking into that bottomless pit;
just walk away fast and say "this is it".
There is nothing wrong with making a mistake;
when you learn what you have believed is no more than a fake.
.
The skies will turn blue again and the clouds they will clear;
just hold on so tightly to the things you hold dear.
Remember in the end that goodness will prevail;
but the bad is there also and from it you must set sail.
