Title: Dust to Dust
It's not what you say
It's not your laughter
That gives you away
You're just lonely
You've been lonely too long
All your perfectly delivered lines
They don't fool me
You've been lonely too long
You've built around
We can light a match
And burn them down
Let me hold your hand
And dance 'round and 'round the flames
In front of us
Dust to dust
You've fought the fight
You bear the scars
You've done your time
Listen to me
You've been lonely too long
You've built around
We can light a match
And burn them down
Let me hold your hand
And dance 'round and 'round the flames
In front of us
Dust to dust
Takes one to know one, so take it from me
You've been lonely
You've been lonely too long
We've been lonely
We've been lonely too long

REFLECTION
The artiste is giving a picturesque of the walls we as individuals set up against external forces of love and care due to our past experiences, setbacks and heart-breaks, from the ones we once entrusted them in.
It's an eye opener also that in life no one is an island, for peaceful existence to reign, there has to be love, harmony and relationships.
