Lyrics

You pulled down the mask

You revealed your true self by removing the facade.

And I beheld at last

I finally saw the genuine emotions hidden beneath.

The frown in folded cheeks

The sadness displayed in the creases of your cheeks.

Released through the weeks

This sadness was held back and has been accumulating over the weeks.


I turn my gaze away

I avert my eyes, unable to find words to express my feelings.

And find nothing to say

In this moment, words fail me, and silence prevails.

Someday I'll face it

Someday, I will confront this truth.

No longer be shapeless

I will no longer lack definition or identity.


It's not my time yet

It's not my time to face certain realities.

There's things I still don't get

There are aspects of life that still elude my understanding.

I barely have learned to shave

I've just started learning basic things, like shaving.

I only wish to misbehave

Despite societal norms, I yearn to rebel and misbehave.


I'll snap at the first chance

I will seize the opportunity without hesitation.

A kick in the guts to dance

A bold move, like a kick in the guts, will make me dance.

On a slippery floor and wet

On a challenging and uncertain path, slippery and wet.

I'm sure you shall forget

Despite my actions, I am certain that you will eventually forget me.


Who dealt this funny hand?

Who is responsible for dealing this peculiar hand of circumstances?

We will rise from teenage wasteland

We, as individuals, will emerge and overcome the challenges of adolescence.
