Sellout~

Here I sit

Quietly, sighing

I’m ready, now, to stop being alone

I leave myself here, leave her dying

And don the coat of lies I’ve sewn

I know their ways

But I don’t care

I won’t be left

Crying here

The lights are blinding…It doesn’t feel right

I thought I got rid of you, I tell myself

Oh, of course, but you’re finding…I’ll put up a fight

She says, but I silence her before they hear

They greet me with a smile, hello

And welcome to the party

And now it’s time

Are you ready to have some fun?

And they smile sweeter

Their blue glass eyes and painted lips alight

Hello, you’re china now, like us!

And if we don’t like you

We’ll break you

Their cherry-red mouths open wide in laughter

Oh, I’m so happy to have friends that love me!

She breathes her last goodbye

But I’m too busy laughing along with them to hear her

A/N: Reviews are welcome, as always. Thank you ^_^
