You spend half your life looking for something
And the other half trying to be someone that you could never be in a million days
But I refuse to be bound by conventions
Relationships are all good intention, reactionary looks, and social grace
You believe in some things I can't believe
It doesnt mean that I dont love you, all the same
Paperclips don't hold my little mask in place
There's no seams left to hide, there's nothing
You can tell when I'm lacking conviction
I hesitate, looking for wisdom
Climbing through my words, my conscience crawls
Like my skin when I'm mired in liars
Telling lies so useless and tired, going into shock if facades fall
To the floor where they're destined to marry
The wood and worms, the surface I'm buried
Up to my eyes and ears and still I know
That if you show me just one sign of weakness
I'll break your heart to show you I could have
Any single time you turned to go
