I say too much.
I say too little.
I never say what’s right;
Walking the line with all my might.
I say too little.
I say too much.
I never say enough;
Acting as strong and playing tough.
I say too much.
I say too little.
I never say what’s heard.
Truth is oft’ an offensive word.
I say too little.
I say too much.
I never say what’s good;
Hiding ‘neath social-conduct’s hood.
I say too much.
I say too little.
I never say what’s apt;
‘Tween truth and lies, I am trapped.
I say too little.
I say too much.
I never say my piece,
For if I speak my pains’ increase.
I say too much.
I say too little.
I never say what’s right.
Loud or silent, I climb the height…
To the middle……………………………………………..of nowhere.
