If you want the truth
Even if I always wanted to,
There are things that I’ve never been able to explain to you
How sordid treachery lurked in the shadows of my subconscious
Giving me the creeps whenever I fall asleep
My ugly minds balancing on a wire
Like a drunk acrobat showing off to a baying crowd
His antics cause everyone to gasp
Even though they all knew he was going to die
It would be a shame if such stupidity wasn’t allowed
Don’t you agree?! or maybe I’m more unhinged than I thought
To think a thing like that

I’m sick of ***** footing around
Those stupid little games you make me play
Trying to avoid every trap you set
Only to inevitable fall short of the mark
A stunning definition of a burning contradiction
Who the **** plays ‘Snakes and ladders’ in the dark?!
And there it is
I can’t stand the way you look at me
You’ve got more front than a double decker bus
Trying to make me take the blame for the both of us
But that’s me done
This is the beginning of the end
I’m not changing my mind, I’m not willing to pretend

I can’t see the world, that people want me to see
I can’t be the man that, you’ve always pressured me to be
I’m not changing
I won’t change no
I don’t want you to fix me
We’re not the same
And I’m more than okay with that
