To pretend is to live In the muddy waters of dignity In the violent world of mortgage rates In the anxiety of consumption Exercise your sk** to die on a raw Attack of unseen fires and thorns Publicize your fears and blow up our minds With terror and angst no reason why Nobody can predict when you'll be giving in Nobody can decide if you corrupt your smile If anybody could see how broken you are Beyond your average acts... I am one of those who ever failed So I give my rock and roll away An after all, when you a**ume your role You're part of the game and that game is Part of your new behavior All bridges are burnt and fences are All closed, you're deviate, you're fired You're a total freak and somehow that raises Your pride You are one of those who ever failed So I give you my rock and roll away If anybody could see how broken you are Beyond your average acts... You are one of those who ever failed So I give you my rock and roll away
