Don't cast your shadows on the path I choose to tread
You, the small ones, plastic, watching from your silent bed
Your eyes, they hold a void, yet pierce the air
In silence, you lay your judgment bare
Empty gazes, yet they sting
Accusations silently they bring
I am no puppet to modern strings
A fool, perhaps, but of my own wings
I crafted this journey with my hands, my heart, my fight
You'll never see the glow of my essence hidden from sight
In reflections, you seek to find my flaws laid bare
But my true shimmer, In the mirror
You will never snare
The void you see, it's not for you to fill or mend
With every glance
My existence you cannot comprehend
Though you strain
The luminescence of my soul remains veiled
Hidden deep, in layers, where your judgments have failed
The void, the question you cannot comprehend
Though you strain
The luminescence of my soul remains veiled
Hidden deep, in layers, where your judgments have failed
Empty gazes, yet they sting
Accusations silently they bring
I am no puppet to modern strings
A fool, perhaps, but of my own wings
I crafted this journey with my hands, my heart, my fight
You'll never see the glow of my essence hidden from sight
In reflections, you seek to find my flaws laid bare
But my true shimmer, In the mirror
You will never snare
Gaze not too closely, lest the mask falls away
From your thrones of judgment, you think you may sway
But the fragility of my being, you cannot assay
In your plastic courts, you judge, but I stray
So judge, if you must, from your high, untouched by time
But know the depths of me, they're mine
But know the depths of me, they're mine
But know the depths of me, they're mine
