about

Originally written for Song Fight.

lyrics

A story can hold every part of you
a self built on extempore bluster
When we ask you just exactly who you are
a bit of bull’s the best that you can muster

Your story will be guessed if it’s not told
We all glimpse what we assume’s the inner you
All the things about yourself that you don’t know
When we tell you them our guesses become true

Whatever we guess will become the truth
To decide for yourself would be so uncouth
Whatever we guess will become the truth for you

A story can be everything you’ve got
that bit of bull that gives your life its lustre
We’ll tell you just exactly who you are
with a certainty that’s guaranteed to fluster

To stop us wrapping you inside a box
Lay claim to the container of your choosing
Self actualize before the moment’s past
And never mind the futures that you’re losing

Whatever you guess will become the truth
Commit to a role while you’ve got your youth
Whatever you guess will become the truth for you

Whatever you guess will become the truth
No need to consult with a psyche sleuth
Whatever you guess will become the truth for you

If you’re not one of us, you must be one of them
This fantasy of self, we’ll find a way to stem
But you’re not one of us, if you’re not one of them
—then who?
