This music for this song was written slowly over the course of five years...

The lyrics of the song were written slowly over the course of five minutes.

This song is short and simple and to the point. It describes how it is not always easy being a good friend and sometimes you have to bite your tongue but sooner or later everything builds up inside like a Hamlet complex and you have to let it out no matter how childish your relationship might be.

Sometimes you are used, sometimes you are ignored, and sometimes you barely get your say in.

~M. LaPlante

I'm like a doll you play with once a week

and there for you when you need to speak

but I try to hold my poker face

so you don't feel so out of place.



You clean up the mess that you made with me

stuff me in the dark and lock me away.



One day I'll speak
