If you say anything with enough authority, most people will believe you.

And in some cases, sometimes, it's easier to believe the lies you tell yourself --- like you're okay with the way things are going in your life --- 'cause the truth's too hard to take.

Isn't it weird, how, no matter how many times we tell ourselves that we don't care anymore, it's still a lie? 'Cause you don't even really need to dig very deep to find it --- that pain that comes from hope being snuffed out.
