Actually

This one came to me somewhere around the 6th of November. It's been a good month or so for me as far as writing lyrics at least. If you can guess what it's about then you're probably not much of a mind reader. I think it's rather clear and to the point unlike most of what I write. Still, by the time it gets worked on for an actual song it will probably change a lot. Once it does I'll try and remember to post it and contrast what it is from what it was.     You always talk a good game Open your mouth and Expect me to follow Snap your fingers and Tell me to listen not Do what you do.................actually   Is this the dream life you thought of Clashing verbiage when you fall down Surrounded by moments of joy Is this how you bury your sorrow.......actually   The things I do that you hate Are fine enough for you to imitate the looking glass never shows the truth Your eyes are covered by a mask........actually   Multiple cult of personalities gather Behind the curtain of dark gray matter Do the linguistic dance mix patter Blame it all on cultural diversity......actually   Conflicting interests far too frequently Never claimed to be a mind reader Come down off the pedestal you chose Come join me in a real world alliance....actually
