string me high from the wires
as the onlookers and the media ignite in fire
their desperation for some from of relief in the small town
reaches towards my body as a base for their sick rumors and sounds

string me high from the wires
as i was the one who saw you and helped your desires
i left him behind, the one who took my family's happiness and home
but does he realize, i'm sick of his naive advances and jokes

string me high from the wires
as my messiah complex begins to grow
saving them as they call my name from the other side of the screen
their desperate breaths and secrets make me long to think and doubt what i know

string me high from the wires
as they put me in the spot of the main vip
the man they want to see as we beat what ever's thrown towards us
the faces i put on and the personas i switch to as my world expands to stress me

string me high from the wires
as my ego builds and breaks
this small town sucks, and so does the world, so let's have a bit of fun
and ruin the damn place

string me high from the wires
as my existence begins to waver
the room is tight and suffocating so i scream my words on paper to let it out
but the wise woman in the corner is none the wiser to the power i've learned about
