Dreams of grandeur keep me from sleep
I long for the day when I can awake
Descending down towards the cliff of defeat
Taking my hope with me on the way.
Watching you watch my aberrant face
Silently you pity my need for a smile
But there is a secret you’d kill to erase:
I’m the most extraordinary girl you’ve met in a while.
I haven’t spoken a word since our encounter
My nerves are getting the best of my countenance
Back to the practice of self-medication
My chemical bravery is at it again.
