What lies beneath

What lies beneath the curtain
if not a veil
drenched in silence

As long as it doesn't sway
you don't care
As long as you don't have to see
you don't care
Whenever it is how you want it

You
Don't
Care

But what lies beneath the veil
if not a broken heart
staunched in misery

As long as it just still beats
you don't dare
As long you don't have to listen
you don't dare
Whenever it is how it should be

You
Don't
Dare

But what lies beneath a broken heart
if not a muted melody
punched into submission

A melody so soft in mind
i don't bear
A melody so clear in sight
i don't bear
Whenever you only defer understanding

I
Don't
Bear

The veil has lifted
The curtain drawn aside
The heart yet still broken
has the melody shine anew

What a fare
