How do I end up in this bizzare world, is it normal? How do I go back to where I came from, was I off it all? You counted every second that we spent inside their prison Brought us here from beyond the high fences and Gates then Could you please explain, why I never thought of leaving Why I always dreamt of looking up at the stars Is there some other way of trying to be thankful Why do they always act so shameful
Your lipstick smile, your polished nails Your lovely eyes, always saw through betrayal
Save what I hid in my closet, from the monsters under my bed Save what I hid from father, from the trolls of the internet It wasn't gonna be easy, they said It never ever gets easy, why still talk now?
Do you like to run on a wheel, coz you're spinnin round and round all day Do you like the white flashes, does it act as a band aid Do you like to flash what you got hidden in your mouth Do you always have to live, and talk how you live, come on now
I said they don't wait up, they're tired Your words wake them up, they wouldn't rather be tired You gotta know where to keep your feet Coz yes you'll lose balance, you'll lose all your fears
Say it now, move slow Hope is yet to come, you got nowhere to go Shame grows like disease You gotta try and get back up on your feet
Who else in this world is tired Of everybody making you feel like you don't have a home...
Somebody struck a chord with me today... The person made me realise that I am better than what they believe I've become... THEY don't determine me, I do
