Shriek of humanity The cries of innocence Ahh yes, this song You don’t hear it? Tell me, what does she sound like? The Symphony of string and percussion The pounding of her heart like tip tap of water Nearly empty Thinning strings as she wails with the violin Angry, Yearning for an audience Harmonizing the dissonance she is struck with It’s almost beautiful Chaos that is in tune with the hearts of men A song for you A mimic of you Muffled by the mirrors we build Allowing only the slightest murmurs A mere echo of their subverted lives We can’t face the music Fearing that we’d see our blemishes Our faces crept away for centuries A false lifestyle In a carnival of plastic mirrors
Everyday the world is asking New questions keep arising Many still left unanswered One day in your life, she’ll run out of breath The silence will choke you You’re loosing something You’re not yourself No longer spoon fed by her patience But you’re still filthy rich Yet something’s still missing Maybe then you’ll be curious What could be playing in that song?
