Alternate Sanity
You don\'t really wanna see
what it is I hide inside
I\'d invite you in and just pretend
that I\'m doing fine
I\'d let you see everything
that I want to be
The truth is I can\'t be anything
that I want you to see
You see it\'s just me hidden
away in my fantasy
A world of creation created
by a mind of insanity
Don\'t get carried away
thinking I\'m admitting you\'re sane
Your world is as fake as mine
I\'m just admitting it\'s not the same
This game that we all play
it\'s a shame of all the things we say
All these alternate truths we
offer honestly and paying the price
The die we roll is the lies we\'ve told
with it\'s blank face leaving our soul cold
It\'s okay you see cause as long as
we\'re here we don\'t have to feel anything
Like words we speak just sounding
good they don\'t even have a meaning
Let me let you go now you\'ve seen
a piece of mind inside of mine
And in time you\'ll get tired of chasing
false vanities inside your alternate sanity.
