The Delusional One


The road to hell is paved in gold
And a heart once warm cannot turn cold.
I pity you these child’s dreams
Nothing here is what it seems.
That man’s smile hides a frown
What’s right side up is upside down.
Love is having tea with Hate
And Jesus Christ is courting Fate.
This is the place you go to see
Most of life’s a mystery.
Not one damned thing is cut and dry
Every saint has told a lie.
And every sinner once was sweet
Can’t you tell such things in those you meet?
Take the blinders off at last
For every present there’s a past.
I have one and so do you
These are things that you once knew.
Get off that horse that stands so tall
Before upon hypocrisy you fall.
To break your neck for pride’s own sake
Would be your worst and last mistake.
