Again, I lie and cry "forget it"
there's no need to pretend,
'cause why would I have said it,
with hope in mind I figure out the limit
power through the sound and image, now and then
I lie and cry "forget it,
I'll hide and try again"
Feeling so unaware, I'm all in, torn in by something that is not even there, something that doesn't care
But it's all in my head, I care unbearably, pessimistic and so instead, I think of all the ways I'm
so intense so I separate, suffering for the hell of it, I elevate, deep in the center I fell for it, but I compensate and
you're there protecting me, subject to fear but it's clear that I'll find the hell in me, like it's supposed to be
Again, I lie and cry "forget it"
there's no need to pretend,
'cause why would I have said it,
with hope in mind I figure out the limit
power through the sound and image, now and then
I lie and cry "forget it,
I'll hide and try again"
I am intentionally sick, wired, and narcissistic, so
Arrive with my hands on a cig, light it, and give it a hit, woah
I gotta feeling that it's making me mad
I feel a little sick of living, it's taking me backwards
Smile for the photo, "Hi" for the phone call
Dying to show off, tired of the codependent
for both, inspired to go for
pious intent when I circumvent 'cause
I have a problem to fix, but I still act like a kid, though
Too metaphorically big, careless, with nothing ahead, so
