Don't try to lie to yourself. Or others. You always knew the truth Was only a half white. The rest was dark magic. It's the reason some of us Can rise so difficultly to the top. While we watch the others burn. Without so much as a wave goodbye. It's why talk is cheap. And everything else costs you dearly. Oh yes, it is a pretty, And supposed rarity among most. Just remember, When you bring your wordless face To the final count, To make sure that you, yourself Didn't get gypped.

Silence is golden-plated.
Don't try to lie to yourself. Or others. You always knew the truth Was only a half white. The rest was dark magic. It's the reason some of us Can rise so difficultly to the top. While we watch the others burn. Without so much as a wave goodbye. It's why talk is cheap. And everything else costs you dearly. Oh yes, it is a pretty, And supposed rarity among most. Just remember, When you bring your wordless face To the final count, To make sure that you, yourself Didn't get gypped.
