- lyrics -
another day goes by, even harder than the rest
am i destined to be an afterthought?
twenty bleached-white cries
“why am i not the best?”
a prison made of pretty lies, i’ll never be caught

weeks go by, i’m dying like the rest
am i destined to be left here to rot?
thirty lights turned off
something pounding in my chest
the staring of a thousand eyes that i had forgot

hey hey hey, listen here… 
“the story of the century!
they kept them under lock and key!”
hey hey hey my dear… 
won’t you come a little closer?
there’s so much more for show, sir!

a bittersweet goodbye to all the world’s kindness
“drink it all!” they cry
if it’s for you my highness
falling down, again i’m on my knees
i’ll waste this life however i please
the bad end is nigh
a liar’s unbecoming
“finally!” i sigh
but still, they keep on coming
broken glass, escape if you’re naive
keeps asking me, “just who is deceived?”

months go by, even longer than the rest
i’m biding my time inside the box
forty bleached-white cries
the drowning of a pest
a palace made of sour spots and blood that won't clot

years go by and still i feel the same
am i begging to be something i’m not?
fifty lights turned off to hide me from my shame
the soundtrack of a million highs to blanket the shot

hey hey hey, listen here… 
“the story of the century!
they kept them under lock and key!”
hey hey hey my dear… 
won’t you come a little closer
and take a peek inside me, sir?

a bittersweet goodbye to all the world’s kindness
“drink it all!” they cry
if it’s for you my highness
falling down, again i’m on my knees
i’ll waste this life however i please
the bad end is nigh
a liar’s unbecoming
“finally!” i sigh
but still, they keep on coming
broken glass, escape if you’re naive
keeps testing me, there is no reprieve

a bittersweet goodbye to all the world’s kindness
“drink it all!” they cry
if it’s for you my highness
falling down, again i’m on my knees
i’ll waste this life however i please
the bad end is nigh
a liar’s unbecoming
darkening the sky
and watch them keep on running
broken glass, so opportune to seize
keeps asking me, “just who was deceived?”

i’ll end my life whenever i please.
