Sorry
It was all those things and more
The truth cannot lie to you
Not even to even the score
Not even to protect you
From the world beyond your door
Not even to keep you from knowing
It wasn't even working before
Perhaps you think they broke it
So you've said, again and again
But lesson learned, you never had it
And you'll never think so again
You insist your chains are unbroken
Just your denial now holds you down
As true as you could make it
The lie was ever what held you bound

 reports, 1d 12h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.61 Beyond the Frontier II - Center of Power^taenaron
