I live the life of a metaphor Leaking out of stolen pens I've been carved on pieces of wood And people still interpret me differently I choose to remain indestructible My worth fluctuates with the readers taste I make a difference in some places I might just go unnoticed Like a wilted rose and it's bleeding petals Lying behind the window pane I represent the spectrum In the gray tinted universe I'm forced into the anecdotes In places I don't want to be Creating a dark impression Like a mirror in front of the wall Mocking at its own reflection.
