Most people just want to understand and be understood
I would rather you be oblivious
But its obvious you know me too well
I kinda hate it
I try to fake it
I dont wear makeup
I just beat my face with a smile
And make it up as I go along

I can't shut up to save my life
I bite my tongue so I won't scream
A dull ache in my head has replaced the sparkly gleam once seen
Just obscene scenes I can't let escape

I push my shoulders down
Part my mouth and loosen my fingers
Alas the smell of the storm approaching lingers
Treading on blue Monday and purple flowers
The rainbow is fading colour
I sow my lips and put one foot in front of the other
