The Song of the Wren

• Artist: -Tainted Mail-
• Description: Just a song I wrote recently. I'm actually pretty happy with this one, since I got to use a metaphor of sorts in it. For those of you who don't know, a wren is a bird that is mainly small and inconspicuous, except for their loud and often complex songs. And, yes, the "wren" is the metaphor I was talking about. Namely, the wren is supposed to be me. -_-

Unable to speak
My emotions fall out
Ignored in the long run
I just wanna shout

{chorus}
Take my heart
And stab it again
You don't understand
The song of the wren

I tell you the truth
Hidden in lies
To hear the real song
Just look at my eyes

The things that I write
Laced with the truth
To figure it out
No need for a sleuth

{}
Take my heart
And stab it again
You don't understand
The song of the wren

Keeping the silence
Stress fills the room
I'll have to stay quiet
'Till I lie in my tomb

I need a relief
Somewhere to go
So just like the wren
I sing of my woe

I may be complex
But I'm still very simple
The most I can hope for
Is to make a slight ripple

{}
Take my heart
And stab it again
You don't understand
The song of the wren

Maybe one day
Someday you'll see
And on that day
You'll set me free
