Someone New

I dye my hair to be someone new
What I am made of is ultra blue
Now I am trying to be truthful to myself

And everyone else

I paint my lips in a different shade
To meet the darkness that wouldn't fade
I try to be brave and accept the pain in me

I need to be someone new
But there's nowhere to go while I walk in these shoes
So I soak in ink and black poetry
I need my mother's horror to be free
It's the way it has to go

I'm getting naked in front of you
What I am made of is ultra blue
I leave the past to reveal the truth
I leave the past to reveal the truth

I need to be someone new
But there's nowhere to go while I walk in these shoes
I soak in ink and black poetry
I need my mother's horror to be free
It's the way it has to go
