Everyone wants to reach heaven by any means
Playing good, having their cards in the right hands
Pretty masks with sparkling dresses
It shocked them when I didn't care about letting my halo cracked
They were writing down facts trying to see where I went wrong
Looking everywhere and wondering what I was told to my face,
They don't realize that my plan was never to be a role model
These wings are decoration and I have a different devotion
Then they shout, try to pull me down as if I was their headline
But I never played a part of their life
Holding books, casting words, and lighting candles
For me to change to their imagine
To sacrifice my blood to make them more holy
I push away, running through graveyards
as they hold symbols and hands towards me
Can't they see these strings holding up my body?
My lies warped and stabbing into my skin, acting as pins
I'm hanging, floating around as flesh chandelier
and they called me a superstar
I don't hold a disguise, I'm in pain, I'm alive
I don't need these high praises and give off this shimmering smile everyday
Yet they let the hot wax hit my face,
trying to make me pure through my screams
But I'm tired, I'm not a hero. I just wanted to let go
They took me from my home and try to replace it
I always known when I entered here
That heaven is too bright and blurry
Yet somehow my lowest point was better than this

A Poet, An Artist, and the person who tries to become a living star
I write the about the creatures from underneath my mind
Some are happy, others are truthful, but I'll let you decide what's their fate
