Jagged Little Pills And Cinderella Illusions
You Are Here Challenge
you located the weakness and casually opened the door
leaving everyone speechless, like you'd been here before
standing there, in the doorway, you simply let yourself in
melting the ice away, you sat yourself next to him
never reading the room you aptly ignored the signs
as if it was owed, you set your sights on what's mine
you played it off as a joke to keep the judgement at bay
blowing circles of smoke around the indiscretions displayed
most sat and watched, as the scene slowly unfolded
but you kept your eyes down to maintain your composure
the tension soon rising, like myself, from the chair
you found it surprising to see that I no longer cared
left to your devices and a second rate man
stupid games, stupid prices still you stuck to your plan
to sever a marriage and set fixed on your high horse
cinderella and carriage on a collision course
cause the truth is a hard pill, jagged and uneven
your kind of emptiness can't fill the tales you believe in
truth is, he is no prince and you're not cinderella
just an unfaithful prick and a second rated cruella
