• And we're the same

    Even though we're feigning integrity

    Honesty in change

    The mirror isn't fooled, and neither is our

    Self-imposed standard of perfection

    We can't be anything but our worst

    As we smile sweetly and exchange

    Loving oaths, laced with greed

    And lethal words left unsaid

    But the silent screams keep echoing

    'Round the ballrooms of our minds

    As our intentions dance a deadly ballet

    Leaping over holes in reality

    Like they never even existed

    Are you ready for the finale?

    An explosion of misread statements

    And underlying themes

    Burst forth in a blaze of glory

    Only to fade in due time

    Surely forgotten by all

    But we know

    That it was one hell of a show
