Your Only Friend, Self Delusion

Elijah Frank
And you find yourself lost
In total confusion
Where your only friend
Is self delusion

You know the answers
But you refuse them
You can see the truth
But it's just too grim

It is easiest
To bury your head
Hide under the sand
Sink into the dread

It is hard to face
Up to who you are
So just let it fade
Head out to the far

And if you don't ask
Well then they won't tell
And the door won't open
If no one rings the bell

So lost and lonely
In the dark and cold
Don't know what to do
But you sure feel old

Find yourself running
Again and again
Yet always getting back
Where you've already been

All you've really got
Are those pathetic lies
That you're all okay
Even on the rise

'Cause your only friend
Is self delusion
And perhaps even that's
Just one more illusion

    This would be an awful way to live.
