I go through stages When I need to fail Create a new story Repeat a new tale I use old phrases I learned to hold onto Believing I wrote down All of them for you I go through stages Dramas in three acts Full of scripted lies Well disguised as facts I rehearse every part To keep my stories straight Careful to not get caught Making careless mistakes Voices become weapons Defending the absurd Deceit buries losers With shovels full of words I look at love offered Make sure it ends soon I imagine the endings Will always be about you I look at other choices That help me spin lies But I never understand Why I needed to try I go through stages When drama nears its end Then move away quickly Start the stages again
