Amelle Rose - Congratulations

Copied!
My body’s a temple
My temple is a jail
How could a miracle
Become one’s shameful hell
Wish I wasn’t lying through my teeth
When I say it will make sense someday
Spouting empty promises
As I give myself away
Midnight, looking out the window
People dancing and a mirrorball
I thought isn’t this ironic
I’m always on the outside looking in
They all said “Congratulations”
None of them could grasp the isolation
When all faith is lost and we’re old
Can love still be
Will love still be enough?
An old woman told me
This would be the best year of my life
I hopеd selective mеmory made it easier with time
She’s been searching for my eyes
Begging for a smile
I looked away dreading the day she would ask
Why Mummy’s sad
Midnight, looking out the window
People dancing and a mirrorball
I thought isn’t this ironic
I’m always on the outside looking in
They all said “Congratulations”
None of them could grasp the isolation
When all faith is lost and we’re old
Can love still be
