All these puppets wear bright smiles While I let my mouth form a frown They stare in wonder at the sky As I feel my gaze drifting down I’m told to stand and dance with them But I am content on the ground Sinking deep into the cobalt sea I’d rather breathe it in, and drown

Truth
All these puppets wear bright smiles While I let my mouth form a frown They stare in wonder at the sky As I feel my gaze drifting down I’m told to stand and dance with them But I am content on the ground Sinking deep into the cobalt sea I’d rather breathe it in, and drown
It’s much more comforting to sit alone and cry, than give in to society’s expectations and lies.
