see me bite into myself
see me strike my own health
i say i please people, but i hurt myself so
im the dark side of my glittery show

why is my discomfort so less to me
why don't i care for my misery
im a beautiful mat, that's what i am
please oh won't you walk all over me

i wriggle and rile and get agitated so
squirm in my seat but don't say a word
tying myself up, knots after knots
tired of reassuring others, have to stop

"It's not bad to be nice, now is it?"
I ask myself every time
as I bite my soul hollow,
such malicious, greedy bites

Please sit down, my friend
I'll be serving you in two
Fashioning up another piece of myself
To be oh so nice to you
