25 Sense

25 Sense   (an original song)


I won’t die
But I killed my yellow bird
A shot I never heard
Covered by my sigh
When I didn’t keep my word

I don’t buy
Yet I billed the scene I slurred
With the weight of a silent word
I drug a head held high

Now I sigh
Though it’s making me tired
I’m inspired to inspire

I won’t lie
I’ve been such a liar

Why have I been so afraid to try?
