Empty promises, empty words, Dance behind my closed eyes Begging to be heard Over peoples devastating lies. Curled up into the blackest corner Of my darkened room Afraid to show her All of myself; might she assume Im more broken than she knows And run like the rest Like Im a terrifying freak show Drowning in endless stress. Maybe Id take her into the city Under the fluorescent lights Where we can finish twirling Like an attraction in the night. Coloring our faces like a rainbow Fading in and out as we walk Down the streets; it is strange, though The fluorescent lights seem to talk. Yelling at me, haunting me, Swearing Im going to hell If I hold her hand for all to see But theres no one I can tell. Lonesome in my darkness I cry Every pitiful tear I can Wishing the ache in my chest would cease To grow even more painful than I can stand. The mirror lay on the floor Shattered and bloody And now Im sure Under fluorescent lights While Im finally happy, Im the monster I tried to drown.
