I forgot to be pretty

I can be sweet and be devoted but I won’t
I can be caring and inspiring but I won’t
I can be neat and tidy, loving but I won't
I can be glossy, maybe flossy but I don't
You expect me to be as patient as elegant
The relevance of my benevolence is evident
You think if you can keep it as eloquent
There’s a chance I’ll agree all this is my element
I can tell by the look in your eyes
You're lapping up every word I say, wait no no no
I can feel your attention arise
Actually my neighbour’s chest is a bit more, more, more
I could drown myself in celebrity
Or in a bottle of Chardonay
We could have seen me on TV
But I forgot to be pretty
I should have taken pictures of kittens and me
I should have posted photos of my meals at the beach on FB
If I knew that was the kind of talent we’re seeking today
I would have learned to point my ass before playing music
My words may not seem to be politically correct
Sorry but I feel like I am getting sick to death
I don’t think that I’m born to be
A role model in society
I prefer to eat my fill,
Smile from ear to ear with something between my teeth
Please make no mistake about it
I understand but just disagree
You'll never see me on a magazine
At least I still know who I am when I go to sleep

Teenage dreams
03:53

It’s been a while
We didn’t see each other
I don’t know why
We just got away hour by hour
Friendship was
The apple of our eyes
We spent nights
Writing our future lives
Can’t even imagine
What our past selves would say
Seeing us separate ways
What remains
Is that photograph on the wall
We build a fence between us
And our teenage dreams keep having a fall
We were young
Living one day at a time
To be blunt
We often crossed the line
I’ve lost my carefreeness
You are losing yourself
I won’t be
The one who’ll set you free

Perfect liar

Lost traveller
You don’t belong here
You’re stranded on earth
With hope and your sweet dreams
You thought you found out
A way to feel free
But as people flout
Every fool such a red flea
You hide yourself from the world
You’re a perfect liar, an actor
But you are falling apart
What’s behind the mask is so drab
Lone traveller
You are wandering, crawling
Try to be taller
To get some stars you go all-in
Give a hint of a smile
Bury what’s on your mind
You’re the passenger of a living lie
You’re the speaker of an empty crowd
And you say one day you’ll find a place where you belong
The place you can call « home »
What I see in your eyes is a broken heart
A gaping wound that you can’t hide with a lie

I Zombie

I’m a soldier of a starving pack
I’m the monster, hiding, wandering in the dark
Hunger master, a bit stark
I’m the beast waiting for its feast
I’m the reaper, bitter, giving you a kiss
A flesh-lover, warm your blood for me, yeah for me
Don’t let me know you can make mistakes
Once you do, you’ll never be safe
And I can feel it
Walking corpse who has been cursed
Of what you have to face in chaos, I'm the worst
Can you feel my teeth, I’m divin’ into your body headfirst
Don’t let me know you can make mistakes
Once you do, you’ll never be safe
I’m dreaming of a hook in your hand
Once I do, you’ll never be the same
Can you feel it ?
