Landing Pad of Lies

Have the days have gotten darker Maybe the sun is just hiding from me I drew cheerful with a marker Just so everyone could see I just want to be sad Run a river from my soul Sail across the angry emotions Wave a flag and let the hatred go Can’t I be bad But not feel the sorrow Chip away the fleshy bits Just remove the bone marrow If you glue me back together Does that make me brand new Or maybe just a second-class citizen Like what you’re used too I flutter from fire breather To angelic fables of hope Exhausted from summersaulting Tightening the line of emotional rope Sometimes expectations morph Desires drown out possibilities It becomes an even playing field Can we just be friends now please I’d rather stick around Than be cut loose I’ll stand on the sidelines without a sound Better than date you and then be excused Skyrocketed through my glass ceiling Had me spreading my wings Forgetting I can’t fly, even if I’m still feeling things Just like the gravity of your lies, you cut my strings Puppeteer my point of view Live in my dollhouse and unleash your abuse Play make-believe with my feelings as a preview Don’t forget to blame it on the booze
