Alaina Macdonald - The Essence of You lyrics

You are dissatisfied with all And everyone's unkind You grasp fun so quickly to all but die from it And frown upon those who don't. You communicate without words And thus are ashamed of your stupidity You insult people for money And do not understand their affront to it You drink without satisfying thirst So when you try to be sophisticated You look the right fool You create all these lies Yet believe in the truth And when another lies you anger Being this you melt quickly into the background And take offense to being ignored So you have become what you said you never would A no one A lost soul With nothing to possess except your own discomfort You cause trouble wherever you go And become a hypocrite to another's defense. You say things you mean Only to take the words back And when you commit to something You lie to try and reverse it And thus you are idle frivolous and vain So much that no one will second your dignity You smoke and become ill Then sue the company you once praised for its products And submit yourself to the same betrayal Over and over again Not caring for your self-esteem And the words ring over and over again in your mind "I too have lived, but lived I have a lie." And you admit to it with sudden force so everyone else is stunned You stare at the diabled When you are mentally unstable yourself You mock the innocents Who scorn in turn your vicious nature And so the cycle goes on without restraint for the majority of your time You sneer at the intelligent Then pretend to study hard yourself And then when you fail at something You throw it down never to take it up again You are nothing if not injustice And everyone else is unfair Only now is your life spent alone And it is filled with friends who are disloyal Thanks to your contempt You simply fade away Never to be anything but a caricature of what you could have been For ever
