When the door is shut

And I’m all alone

That’s when the monsters come out to play

They’re beautiful and I disgust them

Or so their lies betray

They plant the seeds which further stem

Into a downing selfish angst

A siren-song tree

Of choking cruel constraints

You’ve no idea

How easy

Pretending is

When everything is meaningless

And you don’t care anymore

Cause you’re so hollow

Your feelings are torn

And you’re so hollow

Hate is born

And you’re so hollow

The monsters mislead

And so you follow

The vicious sting of unforgotten memories

Cuts through my brain

Like a suicidal slash-across the arm,

Right through the vein,                

And the laughter I hear,

Is so cruel and insincere,

You, don’t, matter

The image, shatters

You’re the mad, mad hatter

Put your heart on a platter

And burn your feelings away

You’ve no idea

How easy

Pretending is

When everything is meaningless

And you don’t care anymore

Cause you’re so hollow

Your feelings are torn

And you’re so hollow

Hate is born

And you’re so hollow

The monsters mislead

And so you follow
