Tell Me

Tell me

What is the role of your soul?

Will you be bold when you're old?

Or will you die quite alone

With a heart full of gold

Much like a buried treasure

Never to be found

Do you skirt around the sound

Or get down with the crowd?

 

What is

The end that you desire?

Do you define life by it?

Or is the angel a liar?

Are you scared or prepared?

A parade or a pyre?

It doesn't matter much

Just a flame to the fire

 

A match for the ashes

Tears for a tale

Tell me only what you wish love

I speak only braille

Misunderstood quite often

The object is not talking

It's a story for a siren

Only the deaf are left walking
