14 Not a Person Not a Man

John McGie/Carl Craig

NOT A PERSON NOT A MAN

What hellish guise have I retained?
Am I no more than a trodden grain of sand?
Not a man but a fool disdained by himself
Sacrificing innocence for position

What feeble imp have I become?
Quaking from the deeds that I have done in shadows
How narrow is the trail I choose to tumble
Navigating round my morals

Fate has born you below me sweet child
Do not hate me for what I am
A decorated empty vessel
Not a person
Not a man

Fate has born you below me sweet child
The choice it is never mine
My duties imprison me
I am not what I wish to be
A wedded groom to this dynasty
A mighty castle in the sand
Not a person
Not a man
