Cover up your words With a sugar-coated laugh She looks like such a friend But the evil from within Will soon domesticate her being Mother helps you practice your lines The night before the fire She tells you when to smile When to laugh and when to cry I tell her I'm tired She puts a bandage on my wound Says it will be good until tomorrow afternoon Keep my feelings set aside They wouldn't even care I feel myself falling I'm escaping this nightmare

Wounds and Cover Ups
Cover up your words With a sugar-coated laugh She looks like such a friend But the evil from within Will soon domesticate her being Mother helps you practice your lines The night before the fire She tells you when to smile When to laugh and when to cry I tell her I'm tired She puts a bandage on my wound Says it will be good until tomorrow afternoon Keep my feelings set aside They wouldn't even care I feel myself falling I'm escaping this nightmare
