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 |
