The Way Things Are

The truth lies beyond reach.
It gets covered by the cleverest speech.

I don't even know where to start,
And you're starting to play with my heart.
I'm sure you don't mean to;
It's just something you do.

You're starting to drive me insane.
Sometimes I feel like you look at me with disdain.
This needs to be fixed; 
Because of all the pain it inflicts.

I'm tired of being left behind.
Is it "out of sight, out of mind?"

I wish you would pay attention
So we don't live with some dissension.

Sometimes I don't even know
Which route to go.
Some conversations are difficult to follow;
And some truths may be hard to swallow.

I wish I knew the truth
So I didn't have to sleuth.
You constantly have me guessing,
And coming up with no answer is quite depressing.

Perhaps I've taken this to far,
And I need to keep searching through the haar;
Or prepare myself for the abattoir.

Whatever way it goes;
Hopefully I'll know the path you chose.

Don't keep me waiting
Because too long I've been mistranslating.
