lyrics

I write my feelings in the stars, to get them off my chest -
A constellation of the sentiment that I've repressed.
It's a cliché, and so I just can't tell if you're impressed,
But pen and ink are understated, so I must digress.

I'd carve them into stone, if only I possessed the tools.
Adolescent impunity; our laughter, as we bend the rules.
The ironic sanity of those who chose to play the fool,
In their disobedient questioning of the jurisdiction of the cruel.

I bleed the burden of my thoughts, with every fractured word.
Touched to see your opinion of me has yet to be completely deterred.
I know my thoughts aren't what the modern world would have preferred,
Yet we revel in our personal circus of the absurd.

This is my catharsis;
The emotion I've withheld.
It's my catharsis;
A breath of life exhaled.
It's my catharsis;
A euphoric release.
It's my catharsis -
Please, let it bring me peace.
