The walls were lined with empty pictures
Of empty friends you never knew
But there’s still space for something fresh to taste
So cover up those claws and go pursue
I heard you climbed a social ladder
To reach a social diving board
Now down you stare its time for truth or dare
And not many people would brave such a fall
You dared them all
Behind your eyes
There was no fear
Just surprise
As the water slowly drained out of the pool
I guess you met the new arrival
Well her late entrance fooled us all
The friends she’ll make and the bones she’ll break
Doesn’t seem like someone you should ignore
Come judgement time you see she’s clearly in her prime
Empty faces cheer and empty hands applaud.
Behind your eyes
There was no fear
Just surprise
