Room Full of People - Chantal Kreviazuk

I was almost thinking

That my cup was full

Yeah, I’ve been working overtime

To get it right, yeah, just to get it just so

I wasn’t hurting, yeah

I made myself my very own Oz

Pull back the curtain, we get the wizard

Now I’m naked with my flaws

For all to see

I’m walking in a room full of people

They all look the same

Nothing like a room full of people

Exhume all the shame

Once, I didn’t that anyone could tell

But then one day we grow aware

We see them stare

They do care, and it’s hell

There’s certain places

Where I don’t even know how to show my face

No painting’s perfect

Nothing at all without the negative space

For all to see

I’m walking in a room full of people

They all look the same

Nothing like a room full of people

Exhume all the shame

Freedom threaten

Mass defection

False prophets and anarchists

Simulation

Navigation

Who’s the one that started it

Come of age

And take the stage

Burn another pot of sage

Fashion victim

Fight the system

The resistance from a cage
