Dare (surprise, another song)

Dig through the mess and the dirt and the dress of the night
Search through the multitude no one is nowhere in sight
Push past the people don’t listen you don’t have the right
Flare up the flame and get ready to burn out the light.
No one is spared
Everyone’s there
Life isn’t fair
Don’t ever dare.
Dress up your wounds like you dress up your words and fight back
If you do not sleep again no one will ever attack
Ashes have fallen they stuck so now everything’s black
Hike up your bag put your foot down and start down the tracks
No one is spared
Everyone’s there
Life isn’t fair
Don’t ever dare.
This was no accident
This was His game
To be played
And we played
Don’t ever dare
Don’t ever dare
No one is spared

Verse 2 and choral reprise of the aforeaforementioned song, which by the way is called threads and strings and secret things

My dear little secret
please stay in the corner
ill feed you with fear
and secure you with mortar
ill hollow a cave
if youll only behave
dont take any more
than the core that i gave
the threads at my fingers
and the strings on my soul
insist they must linger
and blacken like coal
((repeat chorus))
this is the oldest that youve ever been
something is ticking beneath your skin
eyes upon you and they hold back a grin
this game is not obe that you can win.

Chorus to the aforeposted verse one

Somebody knows that you dont blend in
Every encounter is paper thin
Flip through the pages and take it all in
Each stamp of ink is original sin.

Slam it or sing it? I want feedback :)

We try and we die in the
bliss of a lullaby
We hum soft and low to the
secrets below
We cannot forego
No matter the time
The itch of the ticking
The twelve o'clock chime
The threads at my fingers
And strings on my soul
Insist they must linger
And blacken like coal
