We don’t apologize for what we’ve done We just say what we want until we think we’ve won So spin me around and around and around Until I give up standing up A rising temperature and aching feet And then I fall apart but I can’t fall asleep So push it away and away and away Until it’s gone So keep on lying And I’ll stop asking you to be more honest And I’ll keep trying to control my anger But I’ll keep burning down A hollow salutation is the salt in the incision The denial is insistent and my ears are worn So say it again and again and again And again and again and again and again And keep on lying And I’ll stop asking you to be more honest And I’ll keep trying to control my anger But I’ll keep burning down And keep on taking And keep repeating the mistakes you’re making I’ll stop obsessing over conversations That you can’t bother changing And I’m feeling sick I’m pretty sure I’m gonna pass out I’m pretty sure I’m gonna throw up I’m pretty sure you’re sleeping fine Keep on lying Keep on lying

I knew the whole time that I was fucking up I knew the whole time Roller coaster ride Not kind to your insides Your way to cope is such a joke And now I’m talking fast About the recent past Outside a bar, not where I live, and I’m not gonna last Boring story Late 20s You asked me what we were Boring story Old words Running away is starting to hurt You didn’t like my clothes You didn’t know where to go So you moved away to San Francisco I don’t keep in touch I won’t see you around And I won’t because I can’t I’m always looking down Boring Story Late 20s You asked me what we were Boring story Old words Running away is starting to hurt I knew the whole time that I was fucking up

I’m keeping my lips shut I keep on zoning out Pretending I’m just tired When I’m foaming at the mouth And I don’t make a move And I don’t take a stand And I don’t make a scene Because I’m scared And I don’t want to be ‘Cause I thought we’d be different I thought that you and I were gonna be different But now I’m through being optimistic So now I’m boarding up the basement door And I’m not gonna let you in Give me a battle, give me something Give me an excuse, I’ll do nothing And I know that’s not helping But I’m selfish and it’s lonely And there’s a country song that keeps droning on About some asshole’s idea of America And I can’t take the fear of knowing This is out there, so I’m running And I don’t want to be ‘Cause I thought we’d be different I thought that you and I were gonna be different But now I’m through being optimistic So now I’m boarding up the basement door And I’m not gonna let you in And I don’t want to be afraid of what’s surrounding me The thunder and the wind have got me hiding in the underneath And I don’t want to be ‘Cause I thought we’d be different I thought that anything might be different But now I’m through being optimistic So now I’m boarding up the basement door And I’m not gonna let you in ‘Cause I thought we’d be different I thought this generation was gonna be different But now I’m through being unrealistic So now I’m breaking out of apathy And I’m not gonna let you win
