My voice of desperation, sweet and disguised This culture or lack of, Therefore Strains at every vein, immobilizing An obscured feature, hidden away My once beating heart bound by your forceful grasp Beneath layers of damaged tissue A sealed temperament begging to be uncovered So there; discover And I have learned to face myself, through retaliation I bleed red but underneath my blood is blue Like a twilight haze Foggy and distant, departed from my soul And only love Tear ducts claiming me, my voice Lost in a sea of others, it's no miracle Waves overlapping,  I surrender Defeated and overcome by the chill of the sound Of my own voice This misery restrains me The thought hadn't  crossed my mind Perhaps the choice was never truly mine

Society Is My Oyster
My voice of desperation, sweet and disguised This culture or lack of, Therefore Strains at every vein, immobilizing An obscured feature, hidden away My once beating heart bound by your forceful grasp Beneath layers of damaged tissue A sealed temperament begging to be uncovered So there; discover And I have learned to face myself, through retaliation I bleed red but underneath my blood is blue Like a twilight haze Foggy and distant, departed from my soul And only love Tear ducts claiming me, my voice Lost in a sea of others, it's no miracle Waves overlapping,  I surrender Defeated and overcome by the chill of the sound Of my own voice This misery restrains me The thought hadn't  crossed my mind Perhaps the choice was never truly mine
