Can You Tell
Can you tell,
as the toll of a bell,
wakes you in the morning,
with a chaotic warning
telling you to sell
and to buy,
and to lie,
to give up
and keep trying.
Can you tell
the worst mistake you've ever made,
to have and have not-
let it all fade
and later make way for life;
as it rips through your heart
and paints a loving picture of art.
Torn in two,
see it too much gone too soon.
Be right back,
Can you tell,
as the toll of a bell
wakes you in the morning
with a chaotic warning,
telling you to die,
telling you to fly,
telling you to stop,
telling you to pop.
Can you tell,
when love hits you,
and it cuts you,
and blinds you,
leaves you,
bleeds you,
leads you,
tears you up,
brings you down,
can you tell,
that with that tolling bell
cuts you into... Can you tell.
Can you...?
