lyrics

It starts today, the newest grade
These halls that I will walk are not what I had thought
There’s faces in the walls
They hiss at me and bare their teeth and spit their venom out
It’s not how I want to live

I am like a god in that I am silent and weak and hard to believe in
These bricks are my second hand smoke
I choke and become more old than my years would dictate
But hate is such a strong word
That’s why I’m saving it for my days in this place

It starts today, the teachers wake
From underneath their desks
The kids are in unrest and dressed up in their best
Their silks and buttons churn my gut and leave me feeling sick
And vaguely unjustly nostalgic

I am like a pawn in that I am lesser and shaded and underestimated
You are like a queen with no crown, you frown and look down on us from your high horse

I’ll do better next time
Just give me a second chance to change your mind
Some time to find who I am
The man that I can be
