Pages |
I read your mind |
But it wasn’t a very interesting read |
The plot was contrived |
And the characters were too consumed by need |
Page by page |
Enduring each predictable turn |
The paper dissolves beneath my fingers |
And the syllables burn |
The fairy tale you sell is a lie |
But I read the truth behind your eyes |
These words just don’t ring true |
And tell me all I need to know about you |
Edit and revise |
Until your conscience was cleared |
I tried to read the words that were true |
But the ink had smeared |
Distorted prose |
Penetrating layer by layer |
Scrawled down for all the world to see |
As if anyone would care |
The fairy tale you sell is a lie |
But I read the truth behind your eyes |
These words just don’t ring true |
And tell me all I need to know about you |
I read your mind |
Suffered through every last detail |
I watched you try to make sense of your life |
And I watched you fail |
The fairy tale you sell is a lie |
But I read the truth behind your eyes |
These words just don’t ring true |
And tell me all I need to know about you |
