Occupy myself with the thought I'm doing well
Smile at every child who's young enough to tell
Instigate the others while I cover up my flaws
Our apathy will tear us apart

It's senseless

Too bored to be with people, too alone to never try
Disappointment is the reason that I cover up and hide
Take another stab at getting through to me
I'll cut you out and keep you away, closely

Take a stone, hit me 'till I break my bones
Cover me in blood, make me feel at home
Burn my soul, spread its ashes on the floor
Take me for a fool, push me through the door

Some are born in glitter, some are born in gold
Some are born magnificent, but I was born too old
It's a mess when it slowly gets undressed
I'm impressed, but give me some rest
I'm impressed, but give me some rest
Being real is a big deal
And now I finally see the appeal

Take a stone, hit me 'till I break my bones
Cover me in blood, make me feel at home
Burn my soul, spread its ashes on the floor
Take me for a fool, push me through the door

Take a stone, hit me 'till I break my bones
Cover me in blood, make me feel at home
Burn my soul, spread its ashes on the floor
Take me for a fool, push me through the door
