lyrics

My body sinks into the depths of the ocean
Shrinking, drying up into a fossil in the fetal position
(With the dark deep blue as my blanket) x3

I walk by mirrors in a fun house
that magnify my defects
(and reflect all the whispered judgments of the crowd) x3

(The whispers, the echoes, the shadows
They made me do it) x2

Uncomfortable sitting still in prison
with the guard’s piercing eyes accusing me of murder
and wishing I’d give in and wilt away
Like the rest of my inmates

(The whispers, echoes, and shadows
They made me do it) x2

I do it because it makes me feel happy
As if the whole world is happy because I am.
Obey the whispering secrets that promise and
Guarantee my bliss and sanity.
Guarantee my bliss and sanity.
