Oh can you see? I ask,

But that is not my meaning.

Oh can you understand

What I am going through?

For it should be your task

When you see me pleading,

For me, to take a stand

And to protect too, true?

Don’t wait until the mask

That I have been wearing

Ends up back in my hand.

For you will not construe

Until you see me bask

While others are bleeding,

The meaning I have planned…
