buried myself in melody
in stage paint I wear all day
underneath my skin is cracking
my mind is unpinning
if only they could see

dress for battle and take them down
i could conquer anyone
well, except my demons
they have become my life
if only they could see

but if they saw my lies
stopped believing and really looked
wouldn't they lock me up
as my senses shatter
and I become insane

something came loose inside
this pretty little plastic head
under the oil and fame I rot
break: I die once more
and I go insane
