Hurry up, now!
Make your choice!
Pick your poison!
Find your voice!

Choose the path
that grants success.
Don't back down
and don't confess.

See the smarter
side of things
and cast away
what feelings bring.

Throw aside
your unstained life.
Embrace the modern,
tainted lies.

Make the deals
and bargain cheap.
Your life's not yours
so just don't think.

Don't bother with
what never was.
The truth don't matter,
never does.

It never happened
if you're not caught.
These are the lies
the world had taught.

Nothing is more painful than realizing he meant everything to you, but you meant nothing to him. (Unknown)

Awesome stanza! My favorite, however they were all great! As well as the last stanza really brought to a great finish!
