Why Can't You SeeA Poem by MatthewWhy don't they know?
You took them all away
Not for me, but for you You lied to yourself, but I’ve seen your truth Keep telling yourself you did for me, but why can’t you see... Why can’t you see that you are mine... mine! Why don’t you know that I’m... I’m yours! You tell everyone in the world... that I’m you! You lied to me again, for now, I’ve fell again You took them all today Not for me, but because of you You lied to me, but I know the truth Keep telling yourself you do it all for me, but I know you can see... I know you can see that you are mine... mine! I know you can see that I’m... I’m yours! You tell everyone in the world... that you’re me! You told me the truth for the first time, and for now, I’m lost again Television litter the skies In order to solve all the little ties that dissolve in time You kill everyone in order to protect You lie to everyone in order to object No longer free to come and go No longer free to speak and think You turned us all into your weapons Just look at the world now! Why can’t you see that you are mine... mine! Why don’t you know that I’m... I’m yours! You told everyone in the world... that I’m you! You lied to the universe, for now, I’ll look away If only to remember another day © 2013 Matthew |
