Deliver us from the lies we tell ourselves;
For they are good valiums but bring a splitting headache in the morning.
Deliver us from the lies others tell us;
For they stuff our hearts but empty our heads.
Deliver us from the lies we tell others;
For they sour our lips and poison our tongues.
Deliver us from leaders who do not know who they are;
For they will lead us like a blind man leads his aide.
Deliver us from those who embrace sorrow;
For their beds will one day lure us and we will find a lover in bitterness.
Deliver us from those who intentionally break the law;
For not even self-control can save them from disobedience.
Deliver us from a life of toils;
For it makes our muscles stronger but our strength, weaker.
Deliver us from fast money and fast cars;
For they never see the red light at the exit
Deliver us from a dead life;
For, at the end, we all shall still die.
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
