[bodytext] => This house is not a home. The walls crumble around me, And I inhale the dust, Praying for deliverance from this suffocation. But I asphyxiate not from the air. As this tension fuses with your paranoia, I find myself choking on these words That no one's ever heard. Instigation--I am slain by your blade. My only cure is snatched from my hand. My knives kept under lock and key. Proclamation--I'll write it on the walls Till you understand I'll never be All the things you ask of me. Tolerance--I'll have no part of it. You'd have me hide my scars. But I can't make you hide your indecision. So I'd have you wear the impossible mask of perfection So you could see This house is not a home.
