lyrics

Stranger look in to my face there's but a trace of the child before
Go on dig into my past old photographs won't show what's in store
Tell my mother and my father please not to weep anew
They don't need to add their shame to all the hell that I've lived through

Oh the wheels grind slow now but I feel them roll with every note
Oh circle the crows now to feed on the words that spill from my throat they are
Listen up I am the whistleblower it's time you paid the Piper's toll
I never thought I'd be the whistleblower tonight you're gonna take a mighty fall

If you ask me what you'll find just what's behind the Mona Lisa smile
You won't look at me the same and you'll remain unsettled for a while
I remember every tear I was near drowning in the flood
Of something bitter and so stale and it flows much thicker than blood
