History for Sale

A vision of integrity
With an old man yelling, "History for sale!"
My past compared to a deal
My skin turns cold and pale
With a smile
With a beautiful frown
Standing just to reach the light switch
But I can't stand against the ground
I feel hurled against the wall again
And there must a loose end in my head
Knee deep in the knitty gritty
I wish I could remember the important things you said
I don't know whats right
And I can't seem to escape the wrong
I've been doing this on purpose
On purpose all along
Love is just a miracle
Love is just a disease
Love is so important
It will put you on your knees
Love for myself
Heart in a jail
With an old man screaming at the top of his lungs,
"History for sale!"

| I agree: you can't escape the wrong if you don't know what's right. Kinda puzzling poem, but good. |
