modesty

walked out of my house call it today
scarred by the sun making my way
through concrete and mansions flowering passions
beautiful ugly, pretty decay

in the middle of hope trip on a reason
buried my soul grew me a tree
water is fortune i like the poison
weaken my branches wither my leaves

i can tell you have the key
show me the door
no one colder than me
no one's told me that before
thought ambition could be ugly
till i caught a glimpse of you
now i know for sure
now i know that nothing's simple

modesty will prevail, modesty won't provide
how can you tell the tale nobody wants to buy
nobody is a fiction
no matter how much they lie
honesty is a veil, can't be quantified
