I will keep up the fight
with all my might
to make you stay
even if I have to--
put on a one-man-play

I will act my greatest scenes
just to cover up the secret,
--the scandalous secret--
that makes me feel complete

they can put two and two together
but I will avoid their questions
stepping around the cracks--
simply as light as a feather

to sneak, and sneak, and sneak
is what I do best,
and cover up the rest
right now I am at my peak
and I feel so weak

if they take you away
my sanity will not stay
and I will have to
live out the rest of my days
putting on a one-man-play
