Whitelie

Am I nevertheless just a mannequin
An unreal image of hope for brighter days
I've been bent out shape
I've been supported by a false rhyme paying me part time

'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent inside

'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true

Can I exit this room?
Oh, you've got me all the nice things
And we'll see what that brings
If that's bad, then here's lesson one
I know it's hard to say you
Hate me, but I know its true

'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent inside

'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true

Exhale, slide down your spine
Your body's all but mine
And don't you feel like "hell, I'm alive"?

That's why you're a lot like me
You're poison ivy
Doing what I do, but that's not why I'm fighting

There's one more thing on my mind
My minds not really mine
But I don't mind being left behind

Still a persistent fighter
Provoke the fire
Struggling more just to get a little higher

'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent inside

'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true

'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
So promise me I'll get another chance

I'd forgive you
If you knew what I knew
Something so sweetly wrapped up in the end

I'd forgive you
If you knew what I knew
Something so sweetly wrapped up in the end
