Behind my eyes the ice stays cool,
To melt it now would play the fool…
The shields are up both left and right,
Protecting me by day and night.
I play the games they bid me play
Despite the fact I long to stray!
Conforming only for their eyes…
The hidden truth behind my lies!
If I were free to do my best
Perhaps Mankind would then be blessed!
Yet what if I should do my worst?
Be warned, for then you’d all be cursed!
What man could stand my awesome wrath?
For I could rip this whole world off!
Let loose my gruesome subtlety
Would surely lead to infamy!
And then what use would good deeds serve?
I’d truly get what I deserve!
I think it’s best to play their game
For law and order bear no shame!
There’s no great profit made by crime
And prison walls slow down all time…
I couldn’t bear a life inside…
So let their conscience be my guide…
