Truth Serum

Tell me Angel, do you dream in heaven? Do you have nightmares of fairy tales before you are seven? Tell me demon, do you have fantasies of beauty you live without? Tell me priest, because I'm confused your beliefs don't meet your actions and your actions leave me in disbelief. Tell me lawyer, Are you an Justice really that blind? and just how many pills Judge are you going to need to help you sleep tonight? Tell me prophet, Did I do anything right? Did i confuse the truth with the lies enough for the world to stand by my side? Tell me detective whose on "my" side? The crime scene gets harder to cheat sheet every time Tell me banker please why am I always broke? Interesting how my bills are calculated in conjunction to my earnings always leaving me short. Tell me everyone have i made up your mind? Have you tired of your puppet? one more time! Tell me artist who am I now? and what am I being blackmailed for today? In my suffering who have I made a saint? Tell me God Are you ready for your punishment are you willing to admit to everything that you did? Couldn't help ourselves our joy from your pain forgotten again so shed your skin and feed the fake Tell me devil does he even know what he did? Are you ready for your punishment? Tell me fate? Do they know they are trapped? do they even realise the foolish manipulation or the different curses all of us beings bear?
