painful denominations and rechewed food fill the void
simple songs they forgot I sing until annoyed
misty eyes and sweaty palms falling through the dark
eleven moments of misery and I know I'll hit the mark
when you see me walking you know I am the same
a player with his mask on mastering their game
once in a long while I remember how I am
when I'm not the fool pretending to actually give a damn
misplaced, mistaken, misbegotten to be sure
I might take it if I had the happiness wrapped in a cure
stupid I can't be lonely because I hate their faces
stupid, I scream inside when closed into their spaces
and they don't regret because they don't know
they can not care because I won't show
and even their wretched sympathy gives me pain
so one way or the other they'll just label me insane
