[bodytext] => You say the truth’s what you want to hear, But experience makes me lie Survival is keeping my poker face, It’s smiling when I want to cry The reason I build you up, When I’d pay to see you fall Obey your command to run Without the strength to crawl Why I reach for a pen When I want a knife; Why I put the lighter down, Not bring flames to life I’ve played your game so long, I’ve learned how to win: Blur the line between the mask And my bloodied skin Speak with a stranger’s words, The script etched in my mind Lock away my soul, The shell’s all you’ll find Continue to slave for you Though nothing’s all I give How much of myself must I kill, Before you’ll let me live?
