𝘌𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺!!
And so it begins
Me on this stage
Poised and in position
Waiting for the curtains to open
I am set to dance out this story
Theres nothing in it for me
It's your moment of glory
The curtains fall
My face is plastered with a plastic smile
The best mask
You can't tell the difference
And I am fully up to the task
I prance around
Spinning, swinging, swirling
Moving with all the strength I could muster
My bones begin to crack
Under the weight of expectation
But no matter the pain
I'll make sure to not dance in vain
On this stage you built
Im fine playing the fool
While every inch of me shatters
I don't mind being the tool
Crack, crack, crack
It becomes harder to perform
My bones are but splinters
My skin, torn
This pain is nothing
So I change my mask
A grin and a laugh
Even while this place burns
And blood paints my dress
I will still be poised on my toes
I choose to be the villain
in everyone's shows
The performance is over
I take my final bow
Not a single clap
No one applauds
While the curtains are closing
I can't even stand
I wish to pierce my heart
But I have to perform tomorrow
All of this again, from the start
