Tell me what you want

Tell me what you want of me
Or are you terrified of failure?
You put on a superstitious face
Behind all this paraphernalia
We're not living in a masquerade
Where you only have three wishes
It isn't easy to see
In a lifetime of mistaken kisses

I love Clown Strike, but the "mistaken kisses" line has always struck me as trite...

Comments are looking a lot better now, btw...

I agree, Markety. I don't know if I'd go with trite, though. I've always thought that it just didn't "fit."

Oh, and thanks. I'm still working on the digs but need a break.

because i'm terrified of failure.
I've put on a superstitious face
behind all this paraphernalia.
I'm now living in a masquerade,
do try to guess my three wishes.
It isn't easy to take
My current output of tuneless misses.
