Frustrated
This tame facade of mine
No longer suffice
Hiding under a collected grace
I am the coolest of Ice
I imagine my soul
Bursting out of me
A burning trajectory
A crack on my skull
And my skin melts
Until my flesh is exposed
Until muscles burn
Shattering my bones
Prim and proper and pure
That's what I am
But not all that I am
A part of me is screaming
And feels that an awakening
Is nearing
I'll feel the Fever burn, too
And Sway to another's music
And finally Do Right
Like Some Other Girls Do
I'll be singing and slinging blues
Do Strange, Twisted and Deranged things
With Monkeys used to the cold
And have a Shot at the Night with Killers
Who knows, maybe I'll scream
We're Not Gonna Take It
Like Joan does in my dreams
I feel like bursting at the seams
And burning from within
And mad at cliches!
But what can I say?
Calm and cool and collected
Is no longer enough
My sparks are rebelling against me
I burn white hot
No longer suffice
Hiding under a collected grace
I am the coolest of Ice
I imagine my soul
Bursting out of me
A burning trajectory
A crack on my skull
And my skin melts
Until my flesh is exposed
Until muscles burn
Shattering my bones
Prim and proper and pure
That's what I am
But not all that I am
A part of me is screaming
And feels that an awakening
Is nearing
I'll feel the Fever burn, too
And Sway to another's music
And finally Do Right
Like Some Other Girls Do
I'll be singing and slinging blues
Do Strange, Twisted and Deranged things
With Monkeys used to the cold
And have a Shot at the Night with Killers
Who knows, maybe I'll scream
We're Not Gonna Take It
Like Joan does in my dreams
I feel like bursting at the seams
And burning from within
And mad at cliches!
But what can I say?
Calm and cool and collected
Is no longer enough
My sparks are rebelling against me
I burn white hot
