I am the poison that kills my hopes
The scissors that cut the rope
This rope I try to hold on to
Before I fall, like everybody else do

I'm just a sheep moved by the opinions
A mannequin tied by the criteria
A piece of clay, waiting to be formed
Another player, should I be destroyed?


Hey no, I can't change for you

But I know, I must stay in the cue

Wish I could just be me 

 But nop, that is not for free


We're forced to act all hours                                                                                                                                        For what? To pass every test                                                                                                                                         By who? Expectations and regrets                                                                                                                          Why? To fit in these needles                                                                                                                                          and then, understand all the sour




                                         I want

You don't

You're not

Come on

You should

You must

But I

SHUT UP











I am the pois... I am... I... fit?




       I'm made the poison that chokes my hopes

          The scissors that cut my ropes 

              A piece of clay, trying to be formed 

                  Another player, not going to be destroyed.
