Why? Why do I hate being around people for so long And better yet why do I hate when people want to be around me? Why do I strive to run to darkness instead of the people who want to bring me light Life’s like that We twist and turn from the things we should want and instead run towards what kills us inside From lust to hate, sorrow and discomfort, we run to things that can only fulfill itself We run to things like these because there’s a hole A hole in our heart that we try to find the filling for yet never succeed But why do we run to the things that have never changed Is it because it’s appealing on the outside or is there something deeper Something reeping inside of us that makes us want it Something that tells us the lie that we will be fulfilled with it but then realize too late we were fooled Why? Why do we allow the same lies to overtake us The same lies to deceive us and blind us from the truth Nothing will fulfill that hole You can search and search and search but it’ll never be healed But I tell you this There is one man who can heal you The very man who is hated by the whole world He overcame all of these problems and through Him you can too The lies were told may be planted in us, but just as weeds are taken out by the root, so can this too.
