People As Props

Holes filled up But we see through the crap Pay what’s enough And never look back What are you staring at? Don’t you know? It’s me you’re looking at I’m the show Step inside and get your ticket What am I selling for these days? My dream, never got any credit But who’s counting anyway. One day you’ll get it Each day will eat you alive Think that progress feels like shit Until there’s nothing inside You move and shift In so many ways Just a piece thrown to fit Being a prop is tough some days
