I would like some feedback on the word flow.

Surgical Cruelty with no anesthetics
I have survived the flames so many times
Words that turn to frowns and leave me scarred
I wonder if I could find a way to hide them all

Why do you have to believe the worst of me
When I tried to share the best of me
Crawling inside my mind so many times
So many words that never satisfied

Precision is the name of the game
And I am too tired to play
But the chips are on the table
Throw your cards, my hands are empty

i'm no poet, but here is my suggestion, per your request, submitted for your approval- changes in bold

surgical cruelty with no anesthetics
i survived the knives so many times
words that turn to frowns and leave me with scars
i wonder, could i find a way to hide them all?

Precision is the name of the game
But I am too tired to play
Still the chips are on the table
Throw down your cards, my hand is empty
