We are the same

We are the same
Holding our passions up to flames
We are the same
We show off our best features for the fame
We will turn tricks and be the best
So that you will like us as we rest
Inside your arms

We are the same
Holding our passions up to flames
We are the same
Pushing people to their edge
We are the same
Two such awful people to be so charming

I'm trying to describe it without the lens of my jealously
I want you to want me and nothing else, but I am out of tricks and traps to keep you
So I fear I'll lose you, with every passing day
Why would you stay?
Without my tricks and kicks of glitter
I am just me

And I feel worthless.

Why would you want me? Why would you need me?
When my song and dance is done. Here I am,
Just running right out of things to say
I sit and smile, knowing you
Knowing what it is you do
And I love it

I love you, I see into
The workings and the gears that live there
I see the lack of love, the lack of care
About what the world thinks-
Because the world stinks

My love expands to consume everything
And once again I realize,
It's not you, it's me
I'm longing for that love to be for
If you see the love I pour for you
Maybe I will get some too
Poured in my room.
Where me and my shadow child stay
Day after day

When the sun goes down,
And I'm by myself
With no one else-
This is what I feel
Deep dark and real, what is this?

My shadow child
