Show And Tell

Tell me how to survive, how you've always wanted it and maybe someday
I'll be exactly what you want
Spoon feed your lies to me, force me your fallacies
And I'll choke on every aged word you shove past my newborn lips
Feed it to me
You say that's what I need but I don't need to shrink into something
I need to leave this sheltered seed

You'll condemn what you don't know
And I'll rise when this all comes down
When this lifetime falters and lies lifeless on this hollowed ground
Let me grow, let me live
Let me leave this nothing, because I've felt it all
All you have to give, and all you give is nothing
There's something wrong
