Not About You

Dirty angel living like a perty angel
Dirty angel hiding behind lies believing it is the only way to sail
Upfront life is the straight and narrow
Flying in the sky like an innocent sparrow
But the truth is the feathers that make up its wings
Are painted bright white along with other things
The stains of past tears are scared red lines covered with pride
Dashing into the shadows when something is even implied
Laughing aloud when the pain splits the hemispheres of the mind
Nervously walking the corridor of life hoping there is something to find
Spitting into the winds of change
Wishing that the view was not so strange
The strands of time wove the forgotten past
Knowing that hiding in the present will never last
This is not about me and not about you
It is about a person do you know who?
