Inside your head Disguise sympathy To hide your misery In mannequins that bleed And lie through their teeth Optimism is a pre-existing aberration I blind myself, devoid of all aspiration A lucid dream engulfs the visions I will never conceive An endless cycle of torment without a reprieve This loneliness beckons before me in Rhythmic patterns that I've yet to see For every lie you spoke For every word untrue I live with regret In contempt of you Disguise sympathy To hide your misery In mannequins that bleed And lie through their teeth You are cancer You are plague I am the voice inside your head You are famine You are loss I am despair, your existential dread
