Retold Tale

Dear You

I know it’s not a name

Only words on a page

But there’s few

Who can say

They’ve done the same

It’s True

You’ll make some mistakes

That’s what they said to you

But life’s

Still boring in the news.

This retold tale has been

Told too many times

We’re still in jail

Though we didn’t do the crime

Too many promises

Of it’ll be alright

So I, try to last through my lines

Three years

Three years of blood, sweat and tears

Washed onto the page

Unknowingly blind

But I’ve learned

How to handle

The silent things

I hear from behind

This retold tale has been

Told too many times

We’re still in jail

Though we didn’t do the crime

Too many promises

Of it’ll be alright

So I, try to last through my lines

Oh who knows

Why everyone is looking at me strange

So oh who knows

Keep going and

Hope things change

This retold tale has been

Told too many times

We’re still in jail

Though we didn’t do the crime

Too many promises

Of it’ll be alright

So I, try to last through my lines
