Play A Fool

Close my eyes right before the impact
Stray bullets masked as fake applause
Through all the pain my soul still intact
Fuck being perfect I embrace my flaws

Takes more imagination than I possess
To pretend their intentions aren’t cruel
Instead of knowing they made a guess
At believing I would willfully play a fool
