Ah, yes I forgot how easy it is to deconstruct people Like watches and clocks, they all have their own intricate gears shifting and turning Still, a precise instrument is able to take apart those intricacies and expose that inherent layer of vulnerability I very much enjoy exposing these facades and their artificial substance I choose to be that precise instrument Gratification comes in droves when the opportunity to reveal the truth presents itself I can see it all around me…These masks Feebly attempting to cover up for shortcomings while detracting from those around them I laugh! I rave! How could I not? So much drama and bluster amounts to nothing more significant than the cream atop a warm apple pie It amuses me! It defines me! These performances to a non-existent audiences I could not survive without the chance to tear down these fakes To rip off that mask and clear their vision So they could finally cease their endless whines So they could open their eyes and see They’re just as ugly as you and me
