COURT JESTER
DAVE THE POET

Nobody knows, What I keep inside
Even angels and devils, Have something to hide
Point of view, Changes truth to lies
Sad to see, A grown man cry
Nobody knows, What I keep inside

Hard times showed up, They’re here to stay
Liquor and drugs, Slow dance with pain
Poison, Not blood, Flows through my veins
Same result, Different day
Truly, The definition of insane
Every second, I bleed life
Nobody knows, What I keep inside

Once in a while, I wish I could smile
Fall in love, Make a friend, Never feel alone again
Stop praying, For my time to end
A court jester, Stillborn into a lonely life
Even angels and devils, Have something to hide
Nobody knows, What I keep inside
