So Tell Me Say

from Dying in Deep River by Ryan Patrick White

lyrics

So tell me say, did you say what you wanted to? Do you feel better? Now I do. And in this temple my soul has died and grown. This life, it lies right to my face. It Puts me in my place. I'm a shell of what you believe in vain and in fear. The dawn is in every man. (every man and every woman a star)

Banks of Elephant Island crawling yeah, I hear the echoes calling," Eyes be under thumbs of the jealousy and rage!" my guts bled out
on this page. And if you ever want to taste the blood, I'll rock your head from the back and let you taste it. She undressed, I'm naked too.

This world's refreshed, did you say what you wanted to? Do you feel better? Now I do. And in this Temple my soul has died and grown. This life, it lies right to my face, it puts me in my place, whatever hell can't hold is seeping from your eyes. The dawn is in every man.

Riding home I could taste your cigarette, it felt like I was smoking. My girl called asking me if I had left. The spell cast was broken. It breaks my heart when I'm away from her, I work like a slave and my loved ones see me barely, it's not right, this can't be real.

I feel strong today, and I refuse to be made a fool. I embrace your ridicule. I wish I was like you, easily amused. You buy every lie splashed in your face. You're content put in your place, but some of us broke free and we could never shut our eyes, once they are open.

Off the rails, I think I know where you're going, I think I know where you're from and I think I know where you want to be.


Beneath he veil, do you know what you're doing? I'm so tired of chanting, for the dead what is meant to be. So tell me, do you want to live ? Because I do, with you. So tell me, do you want to live?

Because I'll reach out to lift you.
