Uniformity Beckoning

underneath the fabric sheets
behind these bones resides the key
I'll seal it off and lock it tight
you won't remember me tonight
lying in bed on a cloudless day
I'll fake a storm imitate the noise of the rain
do you always hate what you don't understand
the only man out of costume will you reprimand
go on ahead you'll be the first to try
when revealed who I was I was ready to die
strike this lifeless body down
crush me in the waves try to make me drown
I will not tolerate the pain that you inflict
I won't back down won't blink or flinch
I'll never give you what you desire
your attempts to break me only fuel my fire
the conformity battle continues on inside
my heart that hardens frozen behind
my ribs that tighten and fight my lungs
I head for the doors with both hands on my guns
wandering down this dim-lit street
I pray nobody sees me in my defeat
gasping for breath I shed my last tear
no longer yours to control I've become your worst fear
