Feel free to leave suggestions for what you want to hear, both genre or just what the lyrics should be about. :) Might show up in the future.

Lyrics:
Ironed shirt
Fake laugh
Firm handshakes
Rehearsed lines
“How’s work?” “I’m great”
Watch their mouths
Count their teeth
Not days
Bite my tongue
Till the copper taste

I smile like everybody else
So they never see the shelf
Where I keep the parts of me
Chained up
Caged up
Quietly

One wrong word
One sideways stare
One red thread in the quiet air
I’m one bad impulse from going to jail
But I smile like everybody else

Office light
Hum, flick and buzz
HR form
“Do you ever feel judged?”
Check that box
“Everything is fine”
Sign my name
In a straight black line (oh)

I smile like everybody else
So they never see the shelf
Where I keep the parts of me
Chained up
Caged up
Quietly

One wrong word
One sideways stare
One red thread in the quiet air
I’m one bad impulse from going to jail
But I smile like everybody else

See that man on the subway
Elbow sharp in my side
I could end his whole timeline
In the space of one blink of an eye
But I breathe in
Count to ten
Grip the rail
Grind my teeth again
They just call it “stress” and “overwhelm”
I call it
Holding back the helm (yeah)

I smile like everybody else
So they never see the shelf
Where I keep the parts of me
Chained up
Caged up
Quietly

One wrong move
One broken spell
All my secrets
All my hell
I’m one bad impulse from going to jail
But I smile like everybody else
