Many things have changed
Things people may see as no change at all
But they're ignorant
They see facts as if they were real instead of a smart person's opinion
They hunger with pains in their tummies
They tell me I'm pale and they do not and never will realize why
There is a place where my heart will always lie
But I still remain caught up in the left side
And I've lost my voice and I can never sing a song anymore
This game never ends
I laugh as I pretend to have friends
But I'm coughing from the flames the water in the air brings about
Connections lost in the cross fire but I'm still breathing
Running around with a smile on my face
For once I am free
I can run without anyone looking for me
At least for a little while
I can squeeze until my emotions run blank
I can live dangerously once again
But it all comes with a price
And my heart is in two halves but will never think twice
Sanity is calm but insanity is even more calm
It's the words you don't say that define you
The ones you do lie and label you
It's proof that you're normal you know
Silence is my best friend
I lay out the cards but the colors are raw and no one could understand
Because I won't let them
And I lash out because this is tug-of war
And I'm the whore who dared say "Tag, you're it!"
I play nice until the gravity lies in reverse and the truth hurts
So I'll make the truth worse
Because you don't want to admit things because you don't believe them
It's because you're all pretend and make fun of your own friends
It's a twisted reality I breathe
I don't hate but I love things underneath because it keeps me on my feet
Keeps me running when things try to weaken me
And I lay around without a tear because I hate to be defined by things
It's a Twisted Introduction of a Fatal Reality
And you say it's all about you
But it's true to blame me
