Born blue
Covered in pink petals
None of us had a clue
Of treacherous vessels
The blood in my veins
Isn't it the very proof of my humanity?
Untouched by my own insanity
Tackled by invisible chains
The truth broke loose
You couldn't handle it
I could find no reasonable excuse
To abstain you from dismissing it
Thunder roared inside of me
Forever lost in the haze inside of my head
Could I never be free?
My body turned into a cage of lead
Blue soul
The pink paint splattered on my skin
I'm getting out of this hole
Don't tell me what I've been
The fire cannot be contained now
I've controlled it well so far, haven't I?
You won't allow
For such shocking words to be anything but a lie
We both didn't suspect a thing
Nevertheless, it is true
I won't silence myself for you
My shattered mind and its silent suffering
Is it such a crime?
Mouth shut
Living life as a deplorable mime
Your lukewarm words cut
Sugar stings my open wounds
Would salt heal me
Looking at the ceiling, those endless afternoons
I punished you unknowingly
With my honesty
Is it so bad to be free?
I won't regret what I did
Long enough I've lied and hid
Such a thing you forbid
But you're the one who wanted a kid.
