Sometimes it's magic
Others, it's tragic
Sometimes you're ashamed
Facedown and in pain
Others, you're elated
The pain has abated
So please will you trust me?
This day might be lucky
For you.

And she said I'm beauty, but I do digress
And he said men rule, but I'm umimpressed
And I am a power, a beauty, a light
And I do not speak, but I mentally fight

It's a cyclone, a whirlwind, a neverending story
Of he said, she said, she stay out of it
It's angry, it's passive, unintentionally boring
And I know I'll never really be a part of it.

Malignancy is do or die, never mind
It's all for one, and one of a kind
Malignancy is my last breath, last of all,
The first thing to rise and the first thing to fall.
