Pull the comforter tightly around
Bind myself down
Hold me in, keep me safe
Away from this chaotic place
The confusion,
Disillusioned
Through all of this the world keeps spinning
And i keep grinning
Keeping this buried
Below the flesh
Why can't it stop
If only for a moment
So I can control it
So i have a say
Why does no one ask me
What it is that i see
That I need
To be
To feel
Somethingreal
Anything
How did it get to this
And how do i miss
The way it was
Just because
This is the real world
Conform to it
Deal with it
That's not me
It will never be...
But it is
How disappointing
And annoying
To do the very things I despise
I close my eyes
and dream
For a moment it may seem
That I am my own person
So that i can feel good about myself
Not replacing happiness with wealth
Go back to my desk
And force the grin
Though i hate every breath i take
While awake
Don't worry night will be here soon,
Pull the comforter tightly around
Bind myself down
Hold me in keep me safe
Away from this chaotic place.
The confusion,
Disillusioned
Through all of this
The world keeps spinning...
