The pressure builds, you buy a gift
You're hoping that your dread will lift
It glitters on her like a glass
You shudder as it comes to passApologize to Luce and Lil'
Converse with Ed, a drive with Jill
Your friends confine you in their worlds
One by one, a string of pearlsConfuse you say, this isn't me
You hover in their unity
Ashamed, you slowly lose your grasp
Release the links, undo the claspThe skin that drips down from the tree
And peels back slowly from your knee
Erupts into your lung and heart
You laugh and laughing, fall apart
Laugh and laughing, fall apart
Laugh and laughing, fall apart
Laugh and laughing, fall apart
...
