[Verse 1]
I know my flaws, yeah, I know them well,
Built my own heaven, turned it into hell.
Why do I spark when it's something small?
Why does my temper just swallow it all?
I'm made of matches, gasoline veins,
One wrong word and I'm feeding the flames.
I hurt some people, they hurt me too,
But revenge ain't shit that I wanna pursue.
I blow up fast, then I'm filled with shame,
Looking at ashes, who's left to blame?
I ain't a monster, I know that's true...
But every explosion leaves a different view.
[Hook]
Poker face... fire inside.
Smile so they never see the wildfire.
Poker face... keep it cold.
Burning up but I never let it show.
Poker face... bite my tongue.
One more spark and I'm coming undone.
Poker face... hide the blaze.
I'm a house on fire with a calm face.
[Verse 2]
I'm not angry, I'm tired of pain,
Years of pressure overflowing my brain.
Every scar became another spark,
Now my daylight feels as dark as dark.
I hate that rage feels stronger than me,
Like someone's else got the fucking keys.
One deep breath, then another fails,
My patience breaks like rusted rails.
People say, "Calm down, it'll be alright,"
They don't see the war that I fight every night.
'Cause when I snap, it's never for fun,
It's years of smoke behind one loaded gun.
[Hook]
Poker face... fire inside.
Smile so they never see the wildfire.
Poker face... keep it cold.
Burning up but I never let it show.
Poker face... bite my tongue.
One more spark and I'm coming undone.
Poker face... hide the blaze.
I'm a house on fire with a calm face.
[Bridge]
I'm a flame begging not to spread,
Trying to cool the storm inside my head.
Learning that strength ain't throwing fists,
It's walking away with shaking fists.
Maybe one day I'll tame these flames,
Without pretending that nothing changed.
Until that day, I'll carry this weight...
A poker face hiding a furnace of hate.
[Final Hook]
Poker face... fire inside.
Every smile is another disguise.
Poker face... hold the line.
Trying not to let the flames decide.
Poker face... don't look back.
Still learning how to stop the match.
Poker face... every day...
Trying not to burn my life away.
