behind_these_eyes

Recommended Posts

Maybe I'll chain myself to the floor,

Turn off the light and lock the door,

Search for a meaning behind this disgrace,

Lie to myself that I'm not a cliche.

 

So what if I don't want a life just like yours?

So what if I sweat failure out of these pores?

Is it because I wont buy what you've sold?

Yet somehow I'm forced to squeeze into this mold.

 

What is success, can it just be defined,

By whatever terms you find proper at the time?

Maybe I'll live in my own little world;

Poor and alone, yet a jubilant girl.

 

I've shut my mouth but still you pry it open,

Shoving ideals down my throat as you're hoping

That maybe I can turn out just like you...

Pressuring others to do as I do.

 

I'm blowing this candle out for the last time.

I'm closing the book and I'm drawing the line.

I'll bet that you never had seen this one coming-

Out of seclusion, I've taken off running.
