I am your pretty, silent, dirty lie
you keep me locked away, way up high
I am your side show freak, this is true
i mirror the freak i see deep in you
Lean on in, drink in my sweet bliss
purse your lips tight, stealing this kiss
Feed off of me, pleasure your deep soul
rob it away, empty me, make you whole
Life is an hourglass, I am your sand
sifting thru repeatedly, gathered by hand
Mask me away, hide me from the human light
struggling for breathe, i writhe and i fight
You keep me locked down, in a box, put away
until you feel the yearn, to unlock me, and play.

"I am your sideshow freak, this is true/ I mirror the freak I see in you." Awesome line. Great rhythm.

So painfully poetic. Comparing yourself to sand in an hourglass, to replay with each casual flip... magnificent! The imagery allows us to feel it all.
