Mandalay

If truth could speak
I need another
I swear it's due
I need another
When I
Get scared
When I recover
I'm sure that there
Can be another
And your life is chained
Close to another
Her shell is deep
Inlaid with trouble
A life for less
A new removal
You shed your skin
And love another
And your back isn't sore anymore
And your feet touch the ground
As you step from the wall
And you gave all you could
Given all that you saw
But dappled with love
Can you see who you are
A lot gets said
You lose another
You shed a load
