Role Playing With Fire
Role Playing With Fire
Fact and fiction
Role play with fire
Black is now white
Truth now a liar
Shall I be silent
Blindfold my tears
Bury my head
Dismiss all my fears
Shall I do nothing
Sit on my fists
Ignore all the hatred
That surely exists
Shall I be deaf
Cotton my ears
Block out the drumbeat
Of doom in the air
If I see something
Shall I say something
Or just walk on by
Ignore what’s occurring
Shall I self censor
Let truth expire
While Fact & fiction
Role play with fire
