Tell Me

Johnny L.

Tell me

What’s been happening to you?

Tell me

What do you want me to do?

There are no roads to heaven

There’s no more roads to Rome

A twisted path overgrown with weeds

Is the only way to get home

Stumbling blindly

Through the grass and thorns

Spinning madly

My heart all ripped and torn

Tell me

What’s been happening to you?

Tell me

What do you want me to do?

I’m not giving out ultimatums

I’m not taking witty remarks

There’s no point in trying to fake ‘em

‘Cause I can hear really well in the dark

You’ll discover

That I’m no Clark Kent

You’ll recover

But can you repent?

Tell me

What’s been happening to you?

Tell me

What do you want me to do?

The question now:

What do you want from me?

Conflict? No.

But can’t we disagree?
