Poetry

Clap, clap

Clap, clap
I guess I might play along
Stomp, stomp
Though something in my head says it's wrong

If I've just woken up, and I must make an important choice
The only good thing that can come of it is a chance to use my voice
I don't understand what time it is until I see it's afternoon
Can't I see, can't I see I need to fix myself soon
A circus melody drives my face
Who can lose it first? When did we start that race
You say you're fine, so I must be alright
That's how this whole thing works, now, isn't that right?

Clap, clap
With the screaming crowd, but it's still not enough
Stomp, stomp
It's the only chance you'll get; I know, it's tough
Clap, clap,
Feel the lake water, before it goes away
Stomp, stomp,
Do you even like to play?

Do you still enjoy saying how fucked up you are?
Do you like that your true personality has flown away so far?
Is life still just a game to you, that you know you're gonna lose?
Another alarm goes off; without thinking, you hit snooze
Even your dreams lack confidence and skill
You can't find your way at school again, you know the drill
Just who will you become if you're allowed to live too long?
Because all you are right now is a pointless song

Clap, clap
Stomp, stomp
Don't you dare

Clap, clap
Stomp, stomp
Separate that pair

Clap, clap
Stomp, stomp
Clap, clap, stomp
If you do, if you do, I will take away your air

Every small mistake is punishable by death
If I so decide, so hold your breath
Don't think I didn't notice that you made a mistake
Even if it's not your fault, your bones must break
Hear the sound carried by the wind, directly to your ears
You will only get stronger if you face your fears
Stand high, stand high, hair blowing in the sky
And jump up, jump up, and say goodbye
