Is this real? Or is this how we’re meant to be?
Biting my fingernails down until they bleed
The sun is rising, oh, you’ll find out. Oh no!
See, your eyes are widened, oh, are you in or are you out?
I don’t want to believe it, no, now you’re lying on the floor
We’ve been playing from the beginning
And now I’m torn cause

Lying just isn’t worth the gain
But I do it anyway
Crying just isn’t worth the pain
But I do it anyway

This lonely cowardice is taking me over
Paranoia’s setting in and it’s hard to ignore
I feel the noose is wrapped around my neck
I am guilty for attempt of false pretense

Lying just isn’t worth the gain
But I do it anyway
Crying just isn’t worth the pain
But I do it anyway
Lying just isn’t worth the gain
I’m my own worst enemy

There’s a coward that’s inside me
I’m trying to break free
It’s time to make a change
I’m a slave

There’s a coward that’s inside me
I’m trying to break free
It’s time to make a change
I’m a slave, to this game
