No Applause

It starts with 
Phantom X
no applause
All the kinsmen clad in tartan plaid
no applause
building a wall from here to nowhere
no applause
Climbing up the down staircase
no applause 
Copper hair or magenta instead of blonde
no applause
My heart bleeds beads of glistening salt water tears
no applause
The broken clock is right two times a day
no applause
not quite making the grade
no applause
Everything I need to know I learned in kindergarten 
no applause
It always don't work out the way you want it to
no applause 
                               Am I worthy
