[Intro]

Ladies and gentlemen

You are about to witness

The most death-defying leap ever attempted

Watch her closely

[Verse 1]

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"

[Pre-Chorus]

All that cuts through

Is the fear of what I'll lose

I was born a welfarе baby

With the blisters in my shoes

Prеtendin' 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)

[Chorus]

I've been confusing afraid and well-behaved

Been sacrificin' things that I want because I thought

That it would make me brave

And since the pastor kicked me out because of tithes that went unpaid

I don't waste my time at all, 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?

[Verse 2]

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 in the roundabout

Daddy told me that he won't be coming around

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

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 tithes that went unpaid

I don't waste my time at all, 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?

[Outro]

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
