Are you what you think you are?
The sweetest dream.
The best of lives.

Struggle to tell.
Truth from lies.

What is good?
What is bad?

What's the most
Fun you've had?

What's the saddest
You have been?

All these thoughts
Let them in.

What's the worst
You have felt?

From the cards
Hard hand dealt?

What are the best
Feelings you had?

When life didn't
Seem so bad.

Truth is hazy
Sometimes false.

If through a lens
Your morals gloss.

How to say
You see clear.

When your mind
Is taught fear.

How to know
You are good boy.

When you bring
Another joy.

If joy so had
Would make a life.

To help
Another is worth

The strife.
