to confront myself
 completely unaware
 of my mind's state
 my brilliant mind
 finds me defined and redefined
 i made a pact
 and how i deliver
 completely unrehearsed
 for what i lack
 my steps i trace
 to the commonplace

 I won't hide behind my words
 i mean exactly what i say
 i say for better or for worse
 i won't hide behind my words
 hide behind my words


 i made a vow
 and how i'm comitted completely understood
 i will allow
 this loss of face to commonplace

 but i'm serious
 so serious
 how serious am i
 i'm serious
 so serious
 how serious am i
 am i

 i won't hide behind my words
 i mean exactly what i say
 i say for better or for worse
 i won't hide behind my words
 behind my words
 behind my words
 behind my words.
