Cradles

I live inside my own world of make believe
Kids screaming in their cradles, those profanities
I see the world through eyes covered in ink and bleach
Cross out the ones who heard my cries and watched me weep

I love everything
Fire's spreading all around my room
My world's so bright
It's hard to breathe, but that's alright
Hush!

Tape my eyes open to force reality (Oh no, no)
Why can't you just let me eat my weight in glee?
I live inside my own world of make believe
Kids screaming in their cradles, those profanities
Someday's I feel skinnier than all the other days
And sometimes I can't tell if my body belongs to me

I love everything
Fire's spreading all around my room
My world's so bright
It's hard to breathe, but that's alright
Hush!
