When we see ourselves, we seethe.
When we grin, we grit our teeth.
What is it that we hide underneath?
Still we are, still within.
Still we remain frigid like ice.

When we weave lies, we fray.
When we play games, we stray.
What is it that still makes us stay?
Still we hide, still they seek.
Still we roll the uncertain dice.

When they toil, we're deaf eared
Still when they feel joy, we sear.
What is it that makes envy so dear?
Still we plot, still we scheme.
Still we don't make ourselves rise.

Still we reek of this stench so vain,
Still we remain, enslaved by this disdain.
