Take off the rose-coloured glasses,
It’s time to face reality, they said,
When you’re on the brink of depression,
Remember that no one is coming to save you,
“Vive La Femme” and other pretentious bull,
Spare me that will you,
“They” is really the voices in my head,
The ones that will take a reasonable woman and make her go crazy,
So that when I walk I will see the gait of hopelessness in my shadows,
And when the clock strikes 12 I lose my mind instead of a glass slipper,
Bailamos…
Nessa 🖤
