Beware false prophets - take a stand!
My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand,
More advice to fill up your head
More empty words from the living dead-
Who seek to explain what can't really be said-
 And how disappointed I was 
 To turn out after all -
 Just a porcelain God - 
 that shatters when it falls-
Too much will kill you - too little ain't enough
You shout my name but I'll call your bluff
Most who see me - see me not for real
We fake & fawn - play games 'til dawn
But I could see what you can see
And I hate too what you hate in me -
 And how disappointed I am
 To find me part of no plan -
 Just a porcelain God - 
 that shatters when it falls
"Don't lose control" - I tell myself,
Life can take many things away -
Some people will try - and take it all
They'll pick off pieces as they watch you crawl
 And how disappointed I was 
 To turn out after all -
 Just a porcelain God - 
 that shatters when it falls-
That shatters when it falls.
