if you want to be a player, you gotta know the rules of the game.

we all get so tangled up in our webs of lies that we carefully wove. we lure delusion, we entrap illusions.
we blindfold ourselves to reality and sink into a drunken stupor of hallucinations.
and all those dreams were mere mirages which our hearts conjured up.
because that very web of lies was designed to fool no one but yourself, and one of the worst gifts to bestow upon yourself is deceit.

we tell ourselves stories every other day, we lose ourselves in those carefully planned fantasies.

we pretend.

but reality always catches up with you.

when you reached a dead end in that certain road and you know you must turn around and go, you do it...

but every now and then, you just cant help but turn your head and look at what you left behind.
