Denial
I feel the cat’s claws, digging into my tongue
When my reflection, asks who I am
I never mourned you
Just fed you to my shadow
Heartbreak led to hedonism
Created a cornucopia of denial
With neatly decorated lies
And cleverly crafted excuses
Disenchanted and desensitized
Desperately clinging to vanity
As insecurity starts to claw through
Speechless
Crawling back to my castle
Where phantom limbs
Caress romantic memories
I feel the cat’s claws, digging into my tongue
When my reflection, asks who I am
I never mourned you
Just fed you to my shadow
Heartbreak led to hedonism
Created a cornucopia of denial
With neatly decorated lies
And cleverly crafted excuses
Disenchanted and desensitized
Desperately clinging to vanity
As insecurity starts to claw through
Speechless
Crawling back to my castle
Where phantom limbs
Caress romantic memories
