Who Knows?

By Shane

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Everybody knows this is nowhere, Everyone knows I am no-one Nobody knows me, I’m so alone… That no-one needs to know Nobody owes me, A single thing So I seek profit In everything Nobody knows this, But it don’t make sense My voice is my only defence So I lay down my head, And face the consequence Everybody knows That I never lie But nobody knows That fact is a lie Nobody knows that Everyone knows I was born a hero, But nobody knows, In a world gone crazy It makes no sense To try to reason In your defence Because nobody knows Written March 11th, 2002 © on Mar 11 2002 06:48 AM PST   10 • 0
