the eyes can see

don't apologize

for another man's lies

burn him round and round and round

ashes make the softest sound

stuff his shirts

until it hurts

with fits of fancy and bulging eyes

don't apologize

for another man's lies

if he can't handle the truth

pile on even more

swinging open the heavy white door

smear his face

with all the vibrant colors

of the human race

don't apologize

for another man's lies

on the Underground Railroad

carry the heaviest load

sweating

and getting

confrontational

don't apologize for another man's lies

the eyes can see what's going on.
