lyrics
I could play the son,
an easy lie for everyone,
but pretty is as pretty does,
it's only fashion.
Yeah, I could play the son,
an easy lie for everyone,
but pretty is as pretty does,
it's only fashion now.
and who am I to say,
I understand but hide away,
knowing who and what I am,
I protest; I'm not a man.
flesh and bone will lie to you,
much as you might claim it's true,
I decide on my id,
I'm not you, I am me.
round and round we all fall down,
raise a flag or raise a sound,
going deeper underground,
culture shock, hear me now.
Said I could play the son,
and raise a glass with everyone,
an easy lie you'd never see,
drop the act and I'll be free.
cautiously it's walled away,
hidden from the light of day,
a game that you're too scared to play,
we've got to find a better way.
maybe it's just all too human,
wrapped up in my illusion,
who am I supposed to be?
this mask I wear just isn't me.
skin too tight to even breathe,
cut the noose to get relief,
tear away at this construct,
experiments we can conduct.
an easy lie for everyone,
but pretty is as pretty does,
it's only fashion.
Yeah, I could play the son,
an easy lie for everyone,
but pretty is as pretty does,
it's only fashion now.
and who am I to say,
I understand but hide away,
knowing who and what I am,
I protest; I'm not a man.
flesh and bone will lie to you,
much as you might claim it's true,
I decide on my id,
I'm not you, I am me.
round and round we all fall down,
raise a flag or raise a sound,
going deeper underground,
culture shock, hear me now.

and raise a glass with everyone,
an easy lie you'd never see,

this mask I wear just isn't me.
skin too tight to even breathe,
cut the noose to get relief,
tear away at this construct,
experiments we can conduct.
