Lie

(album: Undergrowth - 2022)

You take yours and I'll take mine
I'm going through with it this time
I took my pill, I drank my wine
I'm risking everything tonight

I'll jump first, you follow me
Into a standard tragedy
A quintessential agony
Incremental casualties
I can only act irrationally
It's just my nature, naturally
Meeting a standard tragedy
Frequently and rapidly

This is my life, doing things I don't like
Loving was cheap until I paid the price
I fall asleep just to open my eyes
I hate everything, every truth is a lie
No, I don't like complaining but silence is worse
I would rather be hated than never be heard
I'm so sick of giving with nothing returned
I'm so sick of living with nothing to learn

You take yours and I'll take mine
I'm going through with it this time
I took my pill, I drank my wine
I'm risking everything tonight

I'll jump first, you follow me
Into a standard tragedy
A quintessential agony
Incremental casualties
I can only act irrationally
It's just my nature, naturally
Meeting a standard tragedy
Frequently and rapidly
