It's a game that I won't play
I've got my wins and losses safely tucked away
Yeah in the past I chose to fight - not today

I should have known what was in store
We'd met up on that playground many times before
And you still think that I'm a lamb, well - hear me roar

Now I'm in this box and I'm buried in sand
So I dig my way out with my bare hands
I'm bloodied and screaming, "I'm not in denial
And I refuse to believe that I am."

I walk away from all your games
It wasn't fun when something wicked this way came
And meanwhile you just shake your heads and say it's a shame

Why does this have to be so hard?
I guess I'm sad because I'd taken it this far
But know that what I do not want - I discard

Now I'm in this box and I'm buried in sand
So I dig my way out with my bare hands
I'm bloodied and screaming, "I'm not in denial
And I refuse to believe that I am."

On the playground, I want to be free
But sliding board bullies don't care about me
And "friends" that I've made aren't all that they're cracked up to be
No.

And if you think that I'm unkind
Then you should see the stuff I hold inside my mind
Cut me open, cut me deep - see what you'll find

You think that it's my choice to go
And after five years you just move on with your show
Well if you ever stop to think - let me know

'Cause I'm in this box and I'm buried in sand
But I'll dig my way out with my bare hands
I'm bloodied and screaming, "I'm not in denial
And I refuse to believe that I am."

It's a game that I won't play
I've got my wins and losses safely tucked away
Yeah in the past I chose to fight...
