The Illusion:
We're gonna be a while,
Don't you want to stay,
Look at our fake smiles,
You can't just walk away.
No you have to stay here,
For this story we sell,
Or we all begin to fear,
The truths you might tell.
So see you can't go,
Your lips we need to seal,
Not with what you know,
They think our lies are real.
You'll only spread confusion,
Since you know the act,
If you break our illusion,
And give the real facts.

How We Think:
Hey you have to be nice,
You're so easily walked on,
Try socializing once or twice,
Stop trying to pull a con.
Leave us alone freak,
Where're you trying to go,
Get away you geek,
Aren't you gonna show?
Don't whisper about me,
All eyes over here,
You haven't seen what I've seen,
You wanna know my 'fear'.
You can only do this,
But you have to do that,
Wanna meet my fist,
Put down that bat.
No you can't go,
Don't try to take a pass,
You're just a stupid ho,
And our society's a mess.
