"Hello"


"Hello"



The hands are both waved
You both say, "Hello"
But your stride is interrupted not
On your way you continue to go

You think nothing of it
She seems happy, you think
You know the truth
But you decided not to speak

"I just didn't think"
Is your response when you're convicted
"I'll do it next time"
And you think the problem is corrected

The thought flees from your mind
Your schedule full of rush
You settled for "hello"
But "hello" wasn't enough

When she continued past you
She met another smiling face
This time is wasn't a Christian
He was of the satanic faith

Remember that satan is a deceiver
The mask shows something he is not
He works through many kinds of people
With lies that are so easily bought

These two exchange more than "hello"s
They start a meaningful talk
About life and all it's problems
And how sometimes no one cares to stop

The two get closer and closer
They become what you call friends
They lean on each-other's advice
And I don't need to tell you the end

You're only five minutes behind schedule
"Today is a good day" you say
You see so much God in your life
You think this world is okay

The man that became friends with the girl
Says "today is a good day!"
He sees the friendship that he just gained
He thinks satan is okay

You have the truth inside of you
The light defeats all darkness
You choose where you want to shine it
You choose what you put on your face

Remember that satan is a deceiver
The mask shows something he is not
He works through many kinds of people
With lies that are so easily bought
