Survival
Open Wide
Let your lies
Fly outside
Let them soar high
They will help you hide
Keep the lies coming
It's the only way
You will survive
Keep your truth and shame
Caged deep inside
Do not let them in
Because you know
If your inner turmoil
Happens to boil over
People will push you away
Even people with strong morals
Are going to keep you at bay
Push it back inside
Nobody wants to hear you cry
Keep your eyes dry
Smear on a smile
Put on your coat of denial
Even if it's just for a little awhile
It's all about survival
