A jack of all trades and a master of none
Isn’t that what you told me when you were young?
So many restless nights avoiding the sun
Careless whispers spoken with a poison tongue
Sinking down with the lowest of lows
Words are subtle jabs leading to blows
Never throw stones inside this fragile house
When did you stop listening to such sound advice?
An alley cat stalks the unsuspecting mouse
Playing life’s game costs us more than what’s suffice
Sinking down until insanity seizes control
Lies are a cancer that slowly kills the soul

“Careless whispers spoken with a poison tongue…”
That is a powerful line right there! You set the tone with a hammer & then carried it home with a solid landing. A piece like this really needs no explanation. Damn, my friend…
