Fates Warning Don’t Follow Me

Lyrics: Through another late night confession Told to a captive audience And you listen with your ear to the door Waiting for pearls of wisdom to fall Like open secrets overheard Through the cracks in the wall With calculated candor you play the part Of a trusted confidant Moving closer for a better view Looking for more than eyes can see On the tattered pages Of an open diary If you want to know Just what i see Look at yourself And don’t ask me And if you want to know Where we’re going Keep your distance And don’t follow me Like an old friend with nothing left to say You’ll find i’m not who you thought i’d be As you contemplate the silence Waiting for pearls of wisdom to fall From the still uncertain heart That beats behind the wall If you want to know Just what i see Look at yourself And don’t ask me And if you want to know Where we’re going Keep your distance
