Lyrics so enchanting I tremble

Beat so good I shake it

My brain

My thoughts

Coincide

With my withdrawals

Especially if I have the withal

Or the guts

Or the truth

Or the tenacity

 

Lay it all out

Mask it

Masquerade

 

Not letting you see because

Let me not explain

The voice behind these words

And/or opportunities

Can vary

Not only

By a face

Or eyes

Shape

Anything that may appeal

To the deciding factors

Although that shouldn’t stop me

The jam ends

Emotionless

Like nothingness

But rather

Aimless particles floating

Wanting to be encased in an inviting object

 

So please

Encourage me to come out

Fill my balloon of potential

With the water of aggression and pop me.
