Cheering, they chant for the one they want
Prince! Prince! Prince!
Who is the prince that they want?
I am not what you say I am!
The bane
Existence unworthy...
Function unneeded...
Purposeless, worthless...
You throw your sickness upon me!
But I have not faltered entirely
I’m sick of this world
I have traveled through the deepest parts of my subconscious
Ignoring my own ego
I have reached through the scariest parts of my own limbic systems
When I look at you I see freedom
I see a future and a path
which could lead me to a happiness
I've only ever dreamt about.
The girl who bites her tongue
who hates her skin and her mind,
Children raised to rape and plunder
Fallen from grace, and it's no wonder
We've brought about a mighty thunder
Created a beast to take us under
