Ladies and gentlemen You are about to witness The most death-defying leap ever attempted Watch her closely The words, they don't come easy But the feelings come all strong I know words should make me happy If sometimes I play along My chest on set fire, there's no burnin' in my lungs Just an empty space I've labeled as The things that I should love All that cuts through Is the fear of what I'll lose I was born a welfare baby With the blisters in my shoes Pretendin' that I'm small 'Cause I'd be in trouble if I grew Pretendin' I was fine 'Cause I'd be in trouble if they knew (trouble if they knew) I've been confusing, afraid and well-behaved Then sacrificin' things that I want because I thought That it would make me brave And since the pastor kicked me out because of ties that went unpaid I don't waste my time at all, and nobody answers when I pray Are you good at charades? (Oh, oh) Can you see that I'm bleeding on the stage Can you feel the things I'm screamin' even when I cannot say? I don't talk to God, I don't talk at all I'm quiet most these days So are you good at charades? Three words and four syllables Doctor told me I'm not invincible But I've been livin' like I was for far too long A big world feelin' real small now Every day, I'm dizzy and a roundabout Daddy told me that he won't be coming around The only way that I'll get through Is to tell them that I refuse 'Cause I was born a welfare baby So I got nothing left to lose And I'm pretendin' it don't hurt 'Cause I know somehow I'll make do I know exactly how to be alone Because it's all I ever knew I'm afraid to feel like a burden, so I lie awake Try not to get too attached 'cause I know that they'll leave anyway Ever since that pastor kicked me out because of ties that went unpaid I don't waste my time at all, and nobody answers when I pray Are you good at charades? (Oh, oh) Can you see that I'm bleeding on the stage? Can you feel the things I'm screamin' even when I cannot say? I don't talk to God, I don't talk at all I'm quiet most these days So, are you good at charades? Are you any good at charades? Maybe you and I, we should play Should we give it a go, 'cause nobody knows? At the end of the day, it's just a harmless game Well, I don't wanna give it away And I know you could get it if you paid attention Are you good at charades? Are you any good at charades? Mm
