Surrounded by lifeless laughter
I can breathe more easily
Now I know my smile is real
I peel my skin peacefully
Laying at the bottom of a tea cup
Fluorescent lights can’t reach me now
I was scared once
Now I’ll break your neck just for fun
Used to my reflection
I no longer linger
On thoughts of perfection
Used to my nightmares
I don’t see them in my sleep
They crawl up to my eye sockets
But I no longer fear
How calming is to see
All the pretentiousness
Now I know that I am free
Of brainwashing ideology
Laying at the bottom of a tea cup
Fluorescent lights can’t reach me now
I was scared once
Now I’ll break your neck just for fun
Used to my reflection
I no longer linger
On thoughts of perfection
Used to my nightmares
I don’t see them in my sleep
They crawl up to my eye sockets
But I no longer fear
I look at all the people
Who try to be so different
They all end up
Looking the same
Walking through empty halls
Fluorescent lights flicker
Gray faces shine through
Through all of the glitter
