Sticky Fingers

Around and Around and Around and Around

My whole collection is just lost and found.

I thrive of Lies,

My best friend’s Larceny

I am never alone because they will always follow me.

The urges to take always get me caught

The lies help me squirm my way out till they’ve forgot.

Regret turns to hunger

Hunger turns to regret

 

So many secrets burning inside

I choose to run and I choose to hide.

Lost myself inside the lies I create

I can only take this for so long before it’s far too late.

I don’t tell them, in fear of losing it all.

But I’m just waiting for the FBI to call.

I know it’s not illegal

But what if it’s just the beginning

What if it just gets worse and worse until there is no end to my sinning.

 

Unable to break free from this destructive trend,

spiral further down into darkness without end.

Hiding behind smiles while feeling so alone,

My heart heavy with secrets never shown.

 

Too scared to speak up, too ashamed to admit defeat,

I struggle in silence as guilt takes its seat.

A prisoner of my own actions, locked in a cell of deceit

Desperate for help but too afraid to meet

 

I want to start over,

I want to restart

But now it’s too late, I’m playing my part.

Steal out of impulse, lie to cover the tracks,

My mind is a web of guilt and cracks.

I worry, 

now that i’m walking

there’s no turning back
