understand me
don't overlook me
yet some people prefer to underestimate me
but i'm over that
she's misunderstood
she wants to be Ms. Understood
but she has really bad relationship issues
she misses understanding
all you need is a new point of view
or maybe just a new point of you
you'd rather be a synonym than a homophone
even at your best, nothing changes
you hate looking in the mirror
it defines your worth
so you decide to break it and throw it in the trash
but their eyes are ample substitutes
if you feel that your only use
is when you allow people to use you
your usefulness is forever dependent upon your service
when it runs our, you're useless
or if your use is in your youth
you just need to go find the Fountain
then you can continue your service, understood at last
time to grab that mirror again
thus begins the genesis of your exodus
i speak to yourself wistfully
as i wipe my brow, thinking to myself darkly
maybe our effort is wasted
maybe the past warrants precautions
but these precautions keep us (from)
hiding in a closet wondering why the light won't stream in
as we lean back and keep the door shut tight
i fear the Light
i can't stand to be without it
that makes you like everyone else, brother
eventually someone will catch me in my inconsistencies
at least that's what she thought
thoughts provided motivation
even though her hands committed the crime
her mind is as much to blame
the words were purposefully written
every stanza purposely twisted
Alpha meets Omega, read and re-read until you understand
if ever one could understand
