a great white shark

I heard someone say
that what you can´t say
owns you
that what you hide
controls you
and most words are mere tools
they help you stagger through
the days
but the truth stays behind your lips
like leaving your brain
at the door of the club
it´s a sort of protection
which comes at a high cost
never let the draw-bridge down
let them guess
why you were your frown
and all the time you feel
that everything slips away
and the harder you try to pull
the strings inside
the more is lost
a snake gorging on its tail
knowing it is wrong
trying to keep the desires at bay
but the hunger is too strong
and everything flies just by
and still there is no clue
what your soul seeks
it´s just you
and the way you are
you learned how to cope
know you got to learn
how to defend yourself
so you won´t drown in the honey-sea
there is no point
to yearn
you have never been a honey-bee
the alarm-clock will always kill
the best dreams
or never reach your ear
in the worst ones
and you don´t want to be alone
who wants that
but the undeniable truth is
you are already
pretty much
so sharpen some steel
don´t take too much shit
and forget about love
and someone who might come
around the bend
don´t take the hit
to the heart
you are a great white shark
