Buried deep as you can
Dig inside yourself,
And covered with
A perfect shell,
Such a charming
Beautiful exterior.
Laced with a briliant smile
And shining eyes
Perfect posture
But you’re barely scraping by
You’re barely scraping by

This is one time
That you can’t fake
It hard enough to please
Everyone or anyone at all.
And the grave that
You refuse to leave
The refuge that
You’ve built to flee
The places that
You have come to fear the most.

Buried deep as you can
Dig inside yourself,
And hidden in the public eye.
Such a stellar
Monument to loneliness.
Laced with brilliant smiles
And shining eyes
And perfect makeup
But you’re barely scraping by
