Get thee to a nunn'ry, why woulds't thou be a breeder of sinners?


I play this game with myself
I let a few people in on it every once in a while
I pretend I’m capable of not caring
But it doesn’t take much
I’m easily affected.
Could be a song
Could be a photo
Could be some words
Could be a name
I play this game
Pretend to be someone else
Because I think I secretly don’t like myself
But I’m really awful at being anyone else
And I’m reminded so quickly
That it doesn’t take much
I’m easily infected
Could be a song
Could be a photo
Could be some words
Could be a name
I play this game
I always lose
And I’ll let you in on it
Just this once, cos it’s been a while
I pretend I don’t care
Little actress dressing up like
La la la la la la
Fair Ophelia.
Pretend to go mad
Pretend not to care
Because I cannot make them
I cannot sway them
Because they are not easily affected
By my song
By my photo
By my words
By my name
I play this game
Let’s begin.
