Long before my heart attack, I vow to set things straight Certain times we all relate in speech we imitate All the words I wish I'd penned, the thoughts gone unexpressed The illiterate novelist of memoirs meaningless The chameleon that lies in the sun A mysterious soul to no one Identifying, identify me Long before my will was dead, I saw my message spread Entrusting nearly everyone, the king of fools I led Confined to boundaries I half confessed to all my wary guests Long before my heart arrest I'll tell them who I am It's a symptom of being alone When your house never feels like a home Searching for someone, I need a confidant Called a reward of intimacy, somehow it eluded me Someone to love you no matter what you need Before my heart attack I'm coming clean without looking back No more pretending, no more denying truth No more pretending, no more denying you
