As you
/sh/ut/off/
your 'family'
your 'friends'
(you just don't feel like talking)
[don't feel like doing anything much]
you've "got a cold"
"doctor's orders"
"sounds like fun! but..."
You feed them the little
(white poison pills)
and it shocks
*pleases*
you
when they swallow them down
without a second glance
(leaving you)
in peace
in *pain*
but when did
(just a few white lies)
become
The Truth

now they march in
(2-4-6-8)

-CENTRE-
little white armies
(taking over your world)
and now they ask

Just like those lies
