Chrysalis

What did you learn in high school, didn't they teach you anything?
You seemed surprised now
Somebody told you one thing, somebody told you another
You may have to rethink those things right now

All the things that you said,
About how your father was dead
Were lies

But back then you were a young girl
You didn't find anybody like you
But then things got real

Now the nations are up in an uproar
The people are up in arms
And now your finally useful

Remember how you let down your guard
How you were plucked from the dark
And they made you a star, now you're free

Yes your soul now flutters like a butterfly
Free to roam the meadows of the other side
You're your own tour guide now

How the passionless love to bellow
You rest your head on a pillow
You bring cheer to weeping willows
Don't you?

So when the canopy turns, maybe your cousins will learn
How the brighter side of life must be earned

But your friends, y'know, they don't care for that
They're all out having kids and buying kitty cats
And yet you're still alone

But let em go, let em fail
Someday you'll read in the mail
That the real world was invisible the whole time
