A touch of amusment to swallow my pride
A glace at insanity from the other side
I see them whisper, I hear the pity thick in the air
They can't seem to grasp why I really don't care
They can keep their sad words, the looks of dismay
I never was the one to hear what they say

Chin held up, eyes bright and alert
Alone in the dark later I will coddle the hurt
For now don't let them see, don't let them in
They try to change who you are, again and again
I accept my insanity, live with it each day
After all its not like they are the ones who must pay

Tighten my grip on these chains deep inside
To keep my self control, to master my pride
Chin held up, eyes dart around the room
I hope there is a way to leave soon
They say nothing, just sit there and stare
Then whisper behind my back as though I could care

I walk out laughing to myself as I go
At some personal joke they will never know
I'm on top of the world, while burried in the ground
Your name on my lips, a heavy sweet sound
No one will know, no one will see
Reach out and I'll show you my favorite side of me

Two minds mingle, like smoke upon air
Your hands force my head back, in your eyes is a dare
I keep my eyes level, my lips barely part
All the while all I hear is the roaring of my heart
Your lips to mine, your fingers dig in
And with a laugh I let myself over to this sweet sticky sin.....
