As You Were

Walking backward is a skill

  Thrill for those who aquire

   Tiresome for those who fail

    Ails those who desire feeling

     Dealing with cowards

      Words stumbling over their own tails

       Rails to keep them from the edge

        Wedge a key in the lock

         Shock each envious eye

          Buy happiness through the forbidden door

           Or the key is worthless

           Mess, everyone is a mess, each smile fake

          Take a borrowed heart

         Start shocking for a while

        Smile like a stolen kiss

       Bliss comes from happiness

      Dress up manequins as bait

     Wait, wait, wait longer

    Stronger, they will come to steal

   Real, its all real, they will shock

  Unlocking treasured doors with stolen keys

Be as you were
