Detox

I'm not sure of this identity

I've carried this facade for so long

Now I don't know what's really me

When the time comes to be strong



Snapshots from parties, all smiles

Hugging each other close

Is this just another form of denial

Till it's time for tomorrow's dose



The image, the scene I so criticize

Have I become a part?

People full of innocent lies

Masquerading as pioneers of art



So now, to find what's real

I have to let my body ache

Writhe in bed, shriek and squeal

Detox is what it's gonna take
