Dancing lies on a clear blue sky,
I will tear at your disguise,
That you wear so well,
for me to look through,
You're a beautiful one
and you're almost true.
Yet, I am paralysed by your stare,
Like a poor thing caught in a hunters snare,
To wait for a slow and painful demise,
I will break your stare,
I will run from your eyes.
You looked so lonely
when you were asleep,
Now you are the only
distraction I keep,
Under my pillow,
you whisper your doubt,
My tears would fall better,
If I threw my pillow out.
