you can't hide
|
behind social graces
|
so don't try
|
to be all touchy feely
|
cuz you lie
|
in my face of all places
|
but i've got no
|
problem with that really
|
|
what bugs me
|
is that you believe what you're saying
|
what bothers me
|
is that you don't know how you feel
|
what scares me
|
is that while you're telling me stories
|
you actually
|
believe that they are real
|
|
and i've got
|
no illusions about you
|
and guess what?
|
i never did
|
and when i said
|
when i said i'll take it
|
i meant,
|
i meant as is
|
|
just give up
|
and admit you're an asshole
|
you would be
|
in some good company
|
i think you'd find
|
that you friends would forgive you
|
or maybe i
|
am just speaking for me
|
|
cuz when i look around
|
i think this, this is good enough
|
and i try to laugh
|
at whatever life brings
|
cuz when i look down
|
i just miss all the good stuff
|
when i look up
|
i just trip over things
|
|
and i've got
|
no illusions about you...
|
|
you can't hide
|
behind social graces
|
cuz i don't buy it
|
like everyone else
|
and you can lie
|
in my face of all places
|
just don't
|
lie to yourself
|
|
cuz i've got
|
no illusions about you
|
and guess what?
|
i never did
|
and when i say
|
when i say i'll take it
|
i mean,
|
i mean as is......as is...
