I Don’t Fall

 The lyric you left me

is the indifferent expression

of authoritarian imposed silence.


Express yourself;

YOUR VOICE IS NOT FORBIDDEN!


DON’T YOU DARE ACCEPT ADVICE FROM

UNENLIGHTENED LOONS!


You see, my eyes are open wide-

I am aware I’m imperfect.

I Don’t Fall sweetly in tune.


My ears understand, but didn’t ask 

how I could put on a better mask.


To pretend I am in someone else’s shoes-

the twisted truth of attitudes aloof.


And Deceit, he knows no boundaries,

he’s standing on the edge,

tempting you to lose.
