Rise
Throw away
The charade of your life
Let the flame of my heart
Burn away
Your complacence tonight
I command you to rise
Wash away
The decay of your life
Feel the light of your eyes
Find the way
Through the darkness tonight
Fearing no one

Do you really think I covet like you do

Come, take me away
Remove the fear from my eyes
Feel the flame of my heart
Burning away
All conversation tonight
Hearing no one

Am I precious to you now

Now rise
Turn away
From the shame of your life
Feel the light from my eyes
Offering
Consolation tonight
Fearing no one

Do you really think I covet like you do

Come, take me away
Remove the fear from my eyes
Feel the flame of my heart
Burning away
All conversation tonight
Hearing no one

Now, I cannot stop this
Pure emotion
Falling from my eyes
You are vindicating
Liberating
Saviors of my soul

    It's all about rising above the masses.

    Folks, and feel free to argue this: but Fallacy = Evil.

    To be fake, you are denying yourself the truth of your emotions and therefore are lying to yourself and/or others.

    As the song goes (my interpretation): You must throw away all the fakeness in your life and let your heart (passion) guide you. This is how you find out who you are and do what you have been created to do.

    Don't push. Don't pull. Don't force. Especially don't condition yourself. Don't walk away from your own self.

    Because you must understand what you have been created by your creator is the same as what you enjoy doing. Find that alignment and let your life unfold to the happiness and loves that you want/dream/need so badly.

    It's the only way you'll be truly be satisfied.
