mit der art

to try and say you've never felt wretched
low down dirty and vile
is to try and say you've never felt
for to feel is to climb from the rotten bottom rung
where nobody can stand you
the mirror is foreign
and you are something to be forgotten
at that bottom rung
eating itself away like it eats away at you
insides to the outside
guts on show for all to see
and somehow that red
that glistening glittering red
is more attractive than the blondest of girls
the slimmest, most articulate, witty girls
reality is raw and painful
peter pan was only a fairytale
everyone has to grow out of it sometime
that top rung
its still just as rotten, crumbling and unstable
its just that we know
