The Great Pretender

Here I am , standing all alone Arms wide open , too weak to feel Misty eyed and frozen to the bone Please God tell me why this is real It starts with an itch One I can't scratch Like the flip of a switch Stuck here on this patch Embracing the freak that I am I'm the weirdo that you know The Great Pretender So welcome to the show Can you see through me See the poison that's inside My broken conformity See the evil that I hide The beast that wants out Can't chain him anymore It's the sin I won't doubt Tearing me from my core My twisted self centred hate You pretty painted king of clowns You've chosen your fate But I won't let you take me down .
