Where does reality hide?
Does anyone know?

Where does reality hide?
Does it every really show…

Itself behind the masks we wear everyday
Or the lies some tell just to get their way

Where does reality hide?
Behind someone’s desk?

Where does reality hide?
Inside a designer vest?

Or is it in the shadows that lurk in the light
That try to deceive us from doing what is right

Does reality hide in the books we read?
or beneath the current of corruption’s lead?

Where does reality hide?
I would hope to one day see

And in its Truth…
How beautiful our lives could really be
