Words of wax plastered to the center of my chest Ripping it off like a bandaid won't relieve the pain sticking to my skin, no. No Alleviation for the unkind words Seeping doubt further into my fragile spirit Your need to feel superior Are Fists crushing pedals To draw out the Fine essence of who is made from them Stealing sweet floral scent that never belonged to the consumer. You're a moth in the Butterfly Garden, Trying to reflect light with grey scale wings. Deceptive practices, to make believe That I bend at your will, And will leave your mark as a branding to flaunt. I will not Break.

Tread on me
Words of wax plastered to the center of my chest Ripping it off like a bandaid won't relieve the pain sticking to my skin, no. No Alleviation for the unkind words Seeping doubt further into my fragile spirit Your need to feel superior Are Fists crushing pedals To draw out the Fine essence of who is made from them Stealing sweet floral scent that never belonged to the consumer. You're a moth in the Butterfly Garden, Trying to reflect light with grey scale wings. Deceptive practices, to make believe That I bend at your will, And will leave your mark as a branding to flaunt. I will not Break.
