Mocking Bird
I tell too many lies.
As one bird starts to sing,
Another one starts to die.
Softly in to place
As the world keeps spinning
Turning me upside down.
I hold my eyes wide shut.
As one reflection starts to form,
Another one starts to fade.
Trapped in the looking glass.
And sometimes I can’t face,
The things I have done.
I hold too many cards.
As one building starts to rise,
Another one starts to fall.
I know too many truths.
As one mirror starts to shine,
Another cracks and shatters
Trapped in the looking glass.
And sometimes I can’t face,
What I’ve become.
Take it deep from under my skin.
could you hang me out to dry,
Take me out of this lie.
I never ask the right thing.
As one door starts to open,
Another one slams shut.
I have no aspirations.
As I draw the first breath,
It’s time to draw the last.
Hidden in the mockery.
And everything is not as simple as it seems,
But it’s all so straightforward.
