Lyrics
I be full of malice
Looking for something I can't find
It hurts when he don't love you
You'd market my heart
If I let you
You tell us to wear nothing
Sexed and scold us when we change
Attempt to emulate the souls
Against the image you've made
And it's all Fair Game
CHORUS:
Manufacturing illusions
Shattered rainbows coming down
I'm afraid of losing
It's a fine line I could write
Then I'd be found
Lost a soul one night
Saw the mistreatment of others I liked
I be clear
And you don't know what's going round
And it's all Fair Game
CHORUS
I wash my hands
I dance free for you and me
My whole life's forever changed
Forever changed
And it's all Fair Game
It's all Fair Game
