Truth or ConsequenceA Poem by Shawn PurcellAn exploration of what feelings can do to us sometimes.
Truth or consequence
A Secret or a lie? Because I might cross that line And I don't know if I'm afraid. So I step across the tracks And let the silence sit, As the secrets find their place, Because after all the little changes You’re ready to make the trade The sum without the difference for chaos of blame. Chorus Twisted up inside To the point where I can’t speak I had so much to say But in the end there’s no relief Chance made us But circumstance breaks minds. And soon you start to see, In the fire beneath the surface, The start of misconceiving. I don't have time to watch you grow, Or work past another heartache And I don't have the time to watch you fall And pick yourself back up Then deal with all the fall out. Chorus 2 Twisted up inside To the point where I can’t speak I had so much to say But in the end there’s no relief Fear shooting up my spine Hoping that you’ll see That you have something to say © 2014 Shawn Purcell |
