Some Days

Some days I wear my crown like it's made of glass
Feel the cracks under my skin, like time's moving too fast
I'm the spark and the flash, but behind this light
There's a shadowed girl, fading out of sight

And it's hard to be a moment, hard to play the part
When pieces of me break, and nobody sees the scars
Behind the tease and play, there's a girl who drowns
In the silence that fills the space when nobody's around

Some days, I don't wanna be electric fire
Some days, I just wanna rest, drop the desire
Can't breathe in this lace, it's cutting in too deep
But I'm Chaos Kitty, and I got an image to keep

Everyone wants a taste of the thrill I bring
But there's a toll to this dance, to this constant sting
Every whisper and gaze, every hungry stare
Pulls me further from the ground, into the air

It's hard to be the moment, hard to set the scene
Trapped in a dream that's losing its sheen
All this lace and velvet, this playful sin
Feels like heavy chains in the life I'm in

Some days I don't feel like I'm burning bright
Some days, I just wanna melt into the night
When the lights go out and the world fades away
All that's left is the weight of the day
Some days I wear my crown like it's made of glass
Feel the cracks under my skin, like time's moving too fast
I'm the spark and the flash, but behind this light
There's a shadowed girl, fading out of sight

But who am I if I'm not the tease
Not the thrill in every eye that sees
Can't I be soft without being weak
Some days I just need to be me

Some days, I don't wanna be electric fire
Some days, I just wanna rest, drop the desire
Can't breathe in this lace, it's cutting in too deep
But I'm Chaos Kitty, with an image to keep

So I'll wear my crown, crack by crack
Until one day I'm whole or I fade to black
In this world I made, where the night is my friend
Some days, I just want it to end
