Wallflowers

To all my fake friends,

Who all have snake skins,

Only wanting coal, never diamonds.

You say we can make it like before,

But that is till you take it, and say au revoir.

The reservoir makes me think of trouble,

How can you double down on anything?

Trust in myself before any king,

No I don’t shine or even bling,

But I also noticed that the phone doesn’t ring.

Which makes me very anxious,

My soul is on the embankment,

On Broken Dreams Highway 31,

Things used to be so fun,

Now I got a got shot gun,

For who?

Suddenly I'm on the street
Seven years disappear below my feet
Been breaking down
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?  

Even when the tide is high,

You have to swim or die,

Nobody promised me happiness,

I hate when people comment on my mess,

And even worse when people say I am blessed.

I’m a wallflower, I see the noise,

I see the secrets of these girls and boys,

To them a knife and gun are the best toys,

Try having some dignity and poise.

But that is Hippocratic, at its worst,

All the damage I caused wouldn’t quench my thirst.

Sitting here feeling like I’m about to burst.

Cursed the heavens and Tom Cruise,

It’s hard decision, when you have nothing to choose.

Cause 50 out of 50, you were born to lose.

If so, we have walked a mile in each other’s shoes.

Suddenly I'm on the street
Seven years disappear below my feet
Been breaking down
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?

Started with grape ape,

Turn into the great escape,

Don’t want the family crown,

Yeah, I’ll be around.

Cold and aching,

All the pills I am taking,

Make me wonder if there is a bed free,

At the mental hospital where they committed me.

Relax and take it easy,

With a world falling apart seasonally,

All these things I just stood there and took.

I feel like DeadPool realizing I am the only one in a book.

Suddenly I'm on the street
Seven years disappear below my feet
Been breaking down
Do you want me now?
Do you want me now?
