from Pieces Of Chaos, released February 9, 2017
Break me apart and hold the pieces fast
I'll never be
I'll never be what you want

Turn me upside down and shake me
see what falls out
Whatever it is you can keep it
I don't need it

And I won't pretend
I know what this song is about
I'm lying again
It's just all coming out

Is it harder to be
Is it harder to be honest
with total strangers

Than it is to lie
to people you love

Is it harder to be
Is it harder to be honest to total strangers
than is it to be with yourself

I'm not sure that they aren't the same thing

Do you want something honest
Well
I honestly cannot be bothered to care, what you believe

Do you want something controversial
Honestly Honestly honest people are all assholes

And I won't pretend
I know what I'm talking about
I'm lying again
I'm just sick of admitting it

And I'm not sure they aren't the same thing
Yeah I'm not sure they don't comply
and being self aware accomplishes nothing
cus I'm happy here in pessimist's paradise
