What I've found.

By Shadow lost to the light

I've found myself lost for days in the worst kind of haze.
I've found I built myself a maze with no way out of this daze.
I've found I know all the right ways to make sure nobody stays.
I've found myself once again on the floor, but can't figure out why I come back for more. 
I've found I have the greatest treasure but if its worth it I can't be sure.
I've found people call it a chore but I guess I like to see what I can indure. 
I've found people rather like their metaphorical shore but I much prefer to go out and explore. 
I've found everyone is so interested in getting paid they forgot they have it made.
I've found that hearts always fade so it's good to hold on to a spade.
I've found that just because the board is set that dosnt mean your opponent has been met. 
I've found that just because you know how to survive that dosnt mean you know what it means to be truly alive.
I've found that just because you can smile during your lies that dosnt mean that it reaches your eyes.
And I've found that no matter how hard you try there is only uncertainty and hope when you die.
