A Saucerful Of Secrets

The world often turns its back on you in the worst of times
You feel like a caged criminal without any crimes
Longin' for warmth....you look up to someone to hear "all is well"
N' if they too turn their backs on you....Life becomes a synonym for hell

They gave you love n' care which were nothin' but impostors
To believe this harsh fact....you aint masters
As it begins to sink in...you try to fight it
Eventually you give in....as you lack the grit

Durin' these days.....you realize what life really is
With every step that you take.....a barrier exists
These barriers shape n' mould you into masters
They teach you how to treat those very impostors

Ironically,you take in those harsh facts n' become harsh yourself
This in turn imposes harsh facts on the people you once looked up to
Thus.....the cycle continues n' life revolves around itself
In the end.....A Saucerful Of Secrets is what it leaves for you
