I'm your mothers favorite bad influence
Perfect and in line enough
to ignore the major red flags that should induce reluctance
and instead label me hard working and tough
the perfect girl to get to know

I'm who your father thought he would be
music that grates and teeth bared just sharp enough
an idea of who to be and the will to be free
smooth around the edges but inside too rough
the kind of seed in you he'd like to sow

I'm the disgrace with a pretty little face
and the intelligence to lie
and get by with just enough grace
so that one day this persona may die
as I fade from their neat little row
they wish i was on drugs, then they could have a reason not to like me

I hear the screaming and this time it's not from within.
But that does not exclude the demon's trying to break me in.
There are tears in here, but they're not mine at least not for now.
I need to go outside, nothing's alright. I need to shut you out.
I see the pain so clearly cause it's all I used to feel.
I see you kick, I see you shout, but I'll no longer kneel.
Now I think I'm used to it, this has happened too much before.
I will be fine, I'll be alright. This I will now ignore.
This was their advice for so long, I'm just now following it through.
Just don't forget years from now that the cause of this partly all of you.
I feel like I've walked alone since there's no one with me here now,
and I've done this before with another approach, not one that bleeds me out.
This started as I was born and I'm afraid this will never end.
I guess that's fate, my destiny, otherwise I cannot pretend.
Reach my mind, hear my thoughts, then try not to scream aloud.
I'll tell you my memories of all my life, but please don't tear me down.
You made me think
That in just a blink

We'll always be angels
But with hidden devil horns

You made me think
That they were a bunch of morons

You made them look bad in my eyes
I was too doubtful of my own opinions
So I went with what you think
Even though inside,
It was killing me to be such a madness

I believed it was fine
Because you said so they were a bunch of ******
But in reality
You just cant accept who you guys were

Covering up for you impure souls
I was too naive
But my eyes opened itself
And saw every single thing

Now i'm aware who're the predators
They were walking with me side by side
It was a good thing I switched lanes
With that I saw the true and purest hearts

Never again will I enter that dark, mysterious, full of mischief of a forest
For I will never lose sight of the sun ever again
