I see those fakes, and those being faked,
No more anger, no shouts I make.
Learn to keep it low-key, keep my words few,
Cold eyes, but a smile that’s subtle, true.
I see things fade, and those faded by time,
No more cries, no heartbreaks, no chime.
Gotta stay silent, keep expectations low,
So I won't linger in sadness, won't feel the blow.
Killed the old me, the one so absurd,
Killed the reckless one, ain’t you heard?
It ain’t just a brief slumber, see,
It's a rebirth, shedding skin, breaking free.
Might seem sad, a story to pity,
But who ever recognized my inner beauty?
