Heretic

Do you believe in anything?
Does anything believe in you?
Does conscience march on heavy hooves
Storming through your restless nights.

Looking for the mood to swing
From amber bright to shades of blue.
Wait in dread the pack of wolves
Who rage to slaughter helpless sheep.

Can you face your audience,
Bow expecting loud applause?
Is your ego so intense
It flies alone without a cause?

A simple member of the cast,
Lines learned early in your youth.
Good and evil intersect
Leaving just a single thread.

Heed the echoes from the past.
Search your soul to know the truth.
You won’t have to hesitate or
Live your life in mournful dread.
