lyrics
Can't see myself as being anything more than me
Can't see myself as being anything worthy
My perception of myself is so different from what you see
That's what worries me
I want to be a good person
not just someone who does enough to not be bad
I want to put the work in
but I don't even know where to begin
If you know my flaws please tell me
in a letter so I can avoid that too
You may have to knock me down in person
flat on my ass I accept the truth
Keep jumping from distraction to distraction
Activism, music, relationship, all being done without pasion
The irony is not lost on me
So many layers of numb
but now I want them gone
What fucking asshole put them there
with lies told in front of the mirror
with diluted truths I just accept
no wonder this place is such a mess
And all my hate
is really envy
So if you catch me talking shit
I'm just projecting
When was the last time you wrote a song
with only the truth to tell
When was the last time you played a show
and weren't just thinking about yourself
You're half-assing your life
Half-assing your relationships
You're just getting by
Doesn't everyone in your life deserve better than this?
Don't you deserve better than this?
Don't ignore the bad feelings embrace them before it's too late
Because I'm not afraid to die
I'm afraid to lose the trust of the people around me
but that's only guaranteed
if I don't learn some humility
I just hope I can before
whatever disaster big enough to smash my ego
comes crashing down on me
the irony is not lost on me
the irony is not lost on me at all
