text: The pressure builds, you buy a gift
  You’re hoping that your dread will lift
  It glitters on her like a glass
  You shudder as it comes to pass
  Apologize to Luce and Lil’
  Converse with Ed, a drive with Jill
  Your friends confine you in their worlds
  One by one, a string of pearls
  Confuse you say, this isn’t me
  You hover in their unity
  Ashamed, you slowly lose your grasp
  Release the links, undo the clasp
  The skin that drips down from the tree
  And peels back slowly from your knee
  Erupts into your lung and heart
  You laugh and laughing, fall apart
  Laugh and laughing, fall apart
