lyrics

You choose your words with care
So reasonable and kind
Never leave the slightest clue
That you're fucking with my mind
And if I dare suggest
That you may have something to learn
You bury me in your piety
Laced with polite concern

And I know I should forgive
And I know I should forget

We'll leave it all behind us
We won't rake over the past
Our capacity for ignorance of pain
Is truly vast
We'll never learn from history
Or acknowledge our mistakes
Our egos must look pretty
Even if we know they're fake

And I know I must forgive
And I know I must forget

But there's no time to be broken anymore
No space for these words to be spoken anymore
No chance to even start to cut this cancer out my heart
I've got to put my game-face on

It started out in childhood:
Anxieties and fears
You can't afford to show them
To your teachers and your peers
It turns out sensitivity
Is a flaw to overcome
So I learned to put my game-face on
And fake it 'till I'm numb

And I know I will forgive
And I know I will forget
