Will You
Will You?
Will you all now listen to me?
Now,
that I have killed my dreams and done what you wanted
Will you let me be Me?
Now,
That I cannot face myself
Will you ever ask me what happened
Now,
As I lay blackened
Will you ever look me in the eye
Not to pry
Now,
Will you ask me what I wanted
Will you let me go unhaunted
As I ask you today
Will you let me sway away?
From the demons I’ve nurtured
And the dreams I’ve murdered
Feeling ashamed of myself
Not to be blamed for thyself
Will you let me go away?
