Imaginary Appeal

V5

Hey Here I am again, getting ever stranger Sorry I can’t seem to widen my range, sir Feel myself getting left out in the cold (brr) Not gonna whine and slur Or grab a pot and stir But I’m feeling like a cur Everything’s starting to blur Wish I was what you were... So Can I get another drop of validation? Not sure how to exit this situation For now, here’s another demonstration Of my over-contemplation Internal immolation And creeping desperation... See All my moves are premeditated Compliments contractual, obligated Man in the mirror’s pixelated Brightness of my soul, downgraded Lightness of my billfold, raided Triteness feelin' sealed, laminated Even my metaphors are dated How’m I not better hated? Been rehearsing how to smile, laugh, and kneel Play the part till I stop lacking in zeal Fakeness in the front I can’t conceal Pulled my slickest words from a spinning wheel A.I., tell me, does this have appeal? Check with someone gifted from whom I steal Just saying how I feel… For real… Say I’m fine Yeah, I sound convincing Say it’s mine But I’m just renting All this shine Polished pretending You're far too kind With your belief suspending I feel… Like none of it’s real Imaginary Appeal Boatload of nothing from the sea I reel Reeling in revelry, pointless ordeal Dealing with this dying heart of steel Steal away another moment To own it I don’t condone it Wish I was never shown it Rather take another dome it But I’m too addicted to disown it Well… shit… I'd take the mask off But i don’t know how So I guess I’ll bow... Yeah, guess I’ll bow now...
