Deceiving the paparazzi I stroll around with my new lover who has been handed over to me Hungry cameras and flashes Front page splashes I laugh with you and I cry with you I despise the same people as you We started off merely as pawns and now we are the kings of a realm that doesn't need a queen I will be your tear I will be your smile I will be the pillow you scream into when our love feels like a crime I am sure this love is ahead of its time they will write plays and novels about us but will never appreciate us when we are alive I have to go to empty hotel rooms while you sleep next to your new born trying to be a perfect father you told me it was just a one night stand, that you gave into the pressure and then you showed me how much I mean to you behind closed doors we have to hide from the masses to save our asses Figures like us can only raise the flag but can never be defined by it Don't worry darling I'll wrap it around me and I'll be strong for both of us The flashes are making me scared
But our love is like sunshine giving me strength
You chose my freedom over yours
and I will always chose my death before yours
