It’s pretty easy to tell when someone is lying to themself.* But you can never know another person’s truth. And discovering your own truth is an enormous task. The truth that looks you in the eye “No reason why this has to hurt” Tell yourself another lie Compare yourself to other guys “My loser friends are so inert” The truth that looks you in the eye Bewildered every time you cry “I’m self-aware – I’m so alert” Tell yourself another lie Jump off a bridge – expect to fly “Only fools return to dirt?” The truth that looks you in the eye Deception is your alibi “I’m guiltless, honest and overt” Tell yourself another lie Dismiss your actions with a sigh “I never aimed to disconcert” The truth that looks you in the eye Tell yourself another lie by Richard W. Bray *For example, when someone says I don’t care, it usually means they care a lot.
