Tell Me

Let's do something while we have the chance

It's not every day that we're needed

I asked my brother to give direction

To which he bowed and ceded

There I stood, cock in hand

Youthful zeal unbridled

I learned to bleed while I danced

Found emptiness in bottles

Tell me what to do

Tell me what I see

I'm afraid I'm finding

The truth don't set me free

Before I knew it I was lost

Dancing on the table

The public jester made for laughs

But fresh out of fables

I pushed my eye up to the glass

Thought I'd see anew

But I just kept on, kept on seeing

That same familiar view

So tell me what to do

Tell me what I see

I'm afraid I'm finding

The truth don't set me free

So tell me what to do

Tell me what I see

I'm afraid I'm finding

Truth don't set me free
