The empress is naked again
An actress hiding from emotion
But I saw right through
I saw the truth beneath
The lies you surround yourself with
Keep it secret
Keep it safe
Keep it far away from you
No feeling, no passion
Just protection from the big, bad world
Hide beneath your mother’s skirt
Like the lost little girl you try not to be
But that’s what you fall back on
Because that’s what you know
That’s what you are
Looking for something or someone
To save you from the boredom
Of the life you refuse to live
But unwilling or unable
To fight your own way out
You used my helping hand
To rip my own heart out
So you can stay there in your bubble
I gave my last damn
When you stomped all over me again
So sorry that you refuse to see
I can’t make you live
Only you can se yourself free
And yet you refuse to open your eyes
You must like your boring world
More than you’d care to admit
So stay there
