Confessions
|
|
I could use your gullibility
|
Distort the painful truth
|
Present a fear and laugh at you
|
Leave you lost unsure removed
|
The must I feel to put it right
|
Put an end to naive faith
|
In slick successes avenue
|
The vacuum of save face
|
|
Direct words can turn lost minds
|
Towards some monster seed
|
Lyrics sung from pretty looks
|
Can on the reader feed
|
Be strong to check and recognise
|
The pretty face is all
|
But being used to sell you songs
|
That never say it all
|
|
The incident meets the senses
|
The illusions in a mask
|
The sun of a summer afternoon
|
Docility rocks the mask
|
Broken loose from moorings
|
In a flash the swell had passed
|
Towards the beach with unabated speed
|
Confessions of a mask
