Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I wake up in someone else’s skin Mirror cracked—grin painted thin Smile’s a mask I bought from fate Carved it on like Arthur did at eight Gotham lights behind my eyes Laughing when I wanna cry Call me crazy, dress me sane But no one sees the acid rain Walk past friends like I belong They don’t know I’m barely here Twirling in my mental fog I’m the clown they never fear Put on red lips, pull up the hood Tell a joke they think is good But inside? It’s darker still Every laugh a loaded kill --- [Chorus] I wear me like a mask, stitched with shame and duct-tape hope Smile wide—it’s camouflage, with chaos in the smoke I scream into the silence, but the silence screams back louder And no one sees me burning, 'cause I’m laughing in the fire Just one more breath I fake, One more punchline played But when the curtain drops— I’ll vanish with the blade --- [Verse 2] Therapist asks me “Why so dark?” Guess she missed the whole damn arc I’m not sick—I’ve seen the truth This world’s a circus—here’s the proof TikTok bans while bullets fly They say, “Be kind,” then walk right by OnlyFans and plastic dreams While kids get buried in live streams I fake “I’m fine,” I nod and lie I’m Bruce Wayne with Joker’s mind Wore the suit, now wear the scars Dance alone beneath the stars And I know they wouldn’t get it Tried to joke—they just forget it Now I practice saying nothing While my brain rehearses exits --- [Bridge – Spoken Word Whisper] You ever dance with your demons in the pale glow of your screen? I have. And they clap louder than you ever did. --- [Final Chorus] I wear me like a mask, smeared in colors no one sees My thoughts are Arkham cells, and I’ve thrown away the keys I wrote goodbye in lipstick, on the mirror cracked in two Guess we all just play our parts— And I played mine like a fool One last breath to fake, One last joke to slay When I disappear— Tell ‘em, “He was just... having a bad day.” ---
