These are lyrics to song I write back in ‘92 when I was singing in a band.
Lying in the dark, I hear the clock tick.
The sounds pricking my brain, I feel sick.
You lay there beside me, confident as can be.
You think I don’t know that I can’t see.
Truth invades your lips, but you dare not speak.
Tell me!
Tell me, now, and I’ll believe.
The silly smirk you personify.
In that pretty world I leave my stain.
There’s nothing you can do to rectify.
All your efforts are in vain.
Can’t you see what you’re doing?
Tell me!
Tell me, so I can leave.
I ask myself the question of my own naiveté.
All this time ignoring what was in front of me.
Who am I suppose to be?
Tell me!
Tell me, so I can see.
Tell me!
Tell me, or just let me be.
