Chasing the Wind


Alluring fantasies
Fantastic lies
Young man you must
Open your eyes
 
The fictions you seek
The passion you crave
Will one day lead you
Right to your grave
 
It blows in sweetly
And tickles your ears
Very soon you will be
Tasting your tears
 
You must be smarter
To see through the lies
And realize she’s really
A wolf in disguise
 
Chasing the wind
The ultimate game
It will only leave you
Living in shame
