Just One of the Boys
All that I ever am, is something you can't understand.
These thoughts that plague me so, trip me like a nasty blow.
Just like me, this little existence you can't see.
Smile for me please? I grin to hide this agony.
There's nothing to me now, you've shown me how,
To forget all I could be, to make me like society.
I can be a pinup girl, stealing the lusty eyes of the world.
Just how you like her, fragile and thin like a bird.
Swallow this petty person that's hollow, in your shadow.
So whole like the smile, I see you wear to hide the vile.
The demons inside you, oh how I wish they plagued me too.
But I am just trapped in my head, living without noise,
Pretending to be "just one of the boys."
