Something To Lose

Look inside those eyes, not much going on
It's not hard to disguise an empty space with dark makeup
Look at those laugh lines, so inquisitive
Makes you wonder why she laughs when she ain't getting it

Allow myself to intervene for just a moment please
There's a point I'd like to make about conspiracies
First impressions are easy to make
But true intentions are much harder to fake
And you've got something to lose
They call it nothing

Look inside her past, oh so frail and cold
A tattered tale that you just know she ain't the victim of
Look at all those scars, oh you poor thing
Was it even worse when no one seemed to notice these

Allow myself to intervene for just a moment please
There's a point I'd like to make about conspiracies
First impressions are easy to make
But true intentions are much harder to fake
And you've got something to lose
They call it nothing

Feel that lack inside
So full of compromise
You've got to throw it away
Mental barricade
Your insecurities
You've got to throw them away
Rebuild the strength to be your own
Though nobody showed you
Like what you see when you're alone
Alone face to face

Because this lying and this cheating is no way to keep believing
You like who you've become and you like who you're deceiving
Behind the porcelain mask there's a scared little girl
Who hopes to God you don't find out there's no one home

You've got something to lose
They call it
You've got something to prove
They call it
You've got something to lose
They call it nothing
