Approval (Misanthropy)
Been blaming you all the time
for the things that really were mine
You would not swallow my pills
but it wasn't you somehow it was me
There is a question in the floor
the approval I need
is mine not yours
What drove me here to the stars
Was pure luck
Was nothing but a lack of fear at all
But I dared to roll the dice
I have no problems, I don't.
I wake up every morning and slay 'em all
But there is a shade in this canvas of doubt
I hadn't seen before
Something keeps me away
from stopping to be away
But it grows and grows everyday
I don't want this, do I?
Sitting in this corner feeling uptight
I am not like you at all
Sweet relief, being on your own
The approval I need
needs to go to hell
I never lived for it
I will scream my heart out
I will bask in the Sun
