Ive been fooling myself
All of this time
Pretending I love you and deep down you’re mine
Im scared and Im needy
And honey you are just so safe
Using your affection to hide my apprehension
Fooling myself into to feeling out of fear
This isn’t going anywhere

The truth is we really don?t care
We are lying to ourselves
Isolated and uninterested needing something more
Easy way out our last resort
Pathetic attempt at a life worth living
These hearts are merely pawns

How can you force growth lacking seeds
Spontaneous generation
Highly unlikely yet its what we wish to achieve
To trick ourselves into believing this is what we need
Given those around us are so easily convinced
Now to silence our own sensible minds
How hard can it be

The truth is we really don’t care
We are lying to ourselves
Isolated and uninterested needing something more
Easy way out our last resort
Pathetic attempt at a life worth living
These hearts are merely pawns

Just admit it this is all a sham
Such talented deceivers
We are both snakes in the grass
Reaching for something
But we have no sense of direction
It was lost over many lonely nights
But this isn’t the answer
We cant do this for each other
Lets just move on with a bit of dignity

The truth is we really don’t care
We are lying to ourselves
Isolated and uninterested needing something more
Easy way out our last resort
Pathetic attempt at a life worth living
