lyrics

Your cool newborn death house
burdened with the resonance
of your dancing syllables
it wasn't what you said it was how
everyone's trying to please someone
someone usually just turns out to be themselves
you painted your walls the way you
wanted to see yourself
you built this house around you
so you could try to grow into what you say you are
but it's still just a mirage
i once said that i don't mind your shell
only now do i understand my mistake
i was attracted to a beautiful shell
but all that is inside is ugly
