Neon signs and concrete pavements
Lead you the right way home
Another night awake
Staring at the streetlights
Tell me your dreams:
Scarlet cars, and paper planes?
Maiden beauty and roads to fame?
Tell me a fantasy:
Palm-made hearts and smiling faces?
Tears of joy or endless sorrow?
Soon, too soon, you've awoken
To see starless skies and
Copper moons
A devil's daydream
Tell me your lies:
Meaningless apologies?
Or crafted deceit?
Tell me your soul:
A halo, an aura
Or simply a matter of shame?
I tap varnished finger tips
Upon a broken keyboard
Are you laughing at shattered porcelain?
Don't lie.
