i take off my mask and fold it put it in my pocket there is not much left to smile about not much left to chase |
|
a constant reminder of long-buried secrets |
|
i’ve been here longer than you i’ve endured stronger than you |
|
with anger and fear in every note played three became one and a new god was made |
|
cursed by his parents or his dreams crushed by silence or by screams everything is what it seems |
|
no one called me back home no one noticed i'd gone |
|
they give you freedom to dream they hold all that you dream of |
|
in three month’s time i'll graduate and trade in that scroll for a job |
|
is there a cartographer in the house | |
there are people in the world that poetry can't touch don't let 'em touch you they'll only stain your heart |
