Some idyllic nonsense is all it takes to keep the mass in place

Staunch these foreign concepts that only serve to make us lose the race

Ticking by the hours, further further falling behind

Nothing left to placate, the only option left is to rewind

This cage that keeps me sane has no key but I don’t dare leave

There’s comfort in the watchful eyes that see through all my lies

Forsake any means of escape

Dеsperate for an exit

NO

Falling into unknown

Thе sour scent of the thoughts I left alone

Illusions that haunt my mind, yet ebb the pain

“You think that’s okay?”

NO

Isn’t it perfect?

This bittersweetness at only my expense

Of course, this is what is best

Who would have guessed that

Right off the bat my hopes would fall flat

Why must I have to be the one who suffers?

The takeaway is of little comfort

Regret

There are so many things I wish to forget

Can’t you see I’m not a threat

Yet...

I can’t help but wonder, why am I the only one who makes mistakes?

I don’t need a lecture, not even you have a clue what’s at stake

It’s not about attention, I’m already invisible

Sacrifice your feelings, and once again you’re so predictable

Everybody questions my brain

But they won’t dare to answer me a source for my pain

“Everybody’s equally to blame”

Dare I say that’s your new weakest claim

Preach to me about this that, it’s tit for a tat

And by the end of this week we’ll end our little spat

We’re under oath now, so let’s say our final vows

It doesn’t matter how, just wipe away that frown!

This cage that keeps me sane has no key but I don’t dare leave

There’s comfort in the watchful eyes that see through all my lies

Forsake any means of escape

Desperate for an exit

NO

Falling into unknown

The sickly sweetness of things I’ll never know

Suppress the thoughts that eat away inside

“The pain will subside?”

NO

It’s never perfect

Destroy that “ideal”

There’s no use lying here

I want you to be the one thing I fear

...

Hoping for something more

Than little things that have turned into a chore

How easy it all seemed then

What I would give to feel that again...

So, fall into unknown

And trust in lies that are out of your control

Let’s just forget the “why”

There’s no need to cry
