At school he always had to hide
|
His feelings buried deep inside
|
A poker face, his features froze
|
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
|
|
He talked but never moved his lips
|
Made love but never used his hips
|
His skin unused fell to decay
|
From fleshy pink to ashen grey
|
|
It's enough to crack a smile
|
It's enough to make you blind
|
It's enough to make you live your life backwards
|
It's enough to drive you out of your mind
|
|
And he became a figurehead
|
A 3-D sign that might be dead
|
And no one knew his state of mind
|
He fell into the great divide
|
|
It's enough to crack a smile
|
It's enough to leave you blind
|
|
At school he always had to hide
|
His feelings buried deep inside
|
A poker face, his features froze
|
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
|
