I have a choice
And it's an option

To avoid automatic integrity
And enjoy denial's reverie

I can play ignorance
And converse with my conscience  

To whether I want to
Or will I?

The policy is stickier
And thicker to swallow

A stomach full of air
More than being hollow

Becomes more attractive
Than passive

To whether I want to
Or will I?

And won't I?
The obvious path

Dwindles ahead
Waiting to be passed

As the option
Overrides the choice

To whether I want to
Or will I?
