Cut the onion

How well do you know me, did you ever take the time to care

Did you only see what you want or did you really see me there

Cut the onion to bring out some tears

Layer on layer but it's rarely sincere

Cut the onion, play the sad role

It's not a funeral, it's your reality show

I want to be remembered but not on someone else's terms

I don't want a flattering eulogy I never even deserved

Cut the onion to bring out some tears

Layer on layer but it's rarely sincere

Cut the onion, play the sad role
