Sorry, I didn't hear you
My thoughts were too loud
Did you hear someone screaming?
Was it me?
If so, how did I sound?
On this way of becoming,
I've forgotten the roads of my very own hometown
Is it all normal?
Or am I just being a clown?
Set apart the notions,
I was told they made no sense
With oscillating emotions
How am I supposed to manage this pain?
Is it all normal?
'cause I feel it's just going down
I feel stuck in this place
where just strangers surround
Thought I met a familiar face,
ran across the road to say "hi!",
Guess I made another mistake
for she made a face and bid goodbye.
Another misjudgement?
Or was she just being mean?
For once, can it all get easy?
Can we all come clean?
Round and round,
Over and around
Make no sound
Lest they shoot you down
You're the Queen till you follow their rules,
Take their money and be their jewel
(Act like a fool)
And if you refuse to sign, you lose your shine
You're suddenly a stone-cold personality honey, now that you crossed the line.
We're stuck in this maze another time.
From 'Alaska's labyrinth',
Will we ever make it out fine?
