| all bent out of shape all bent out of shape i don't even remember what shape i was before no one cares about me don't even try to tell me they do i really just pretend i care, too so they think i'm funny so what--anyone can be funny i just make fun of them, and they laugh they're laughing at themselves, not me they're drowning in their own stupidity i'm really just like them but i've gotten good at faking a smile no one needs to know i'm in pain it'll go away in a few days for now, i'll just live in my own little haze everyone knows i'm lying but if i tell them the truth, i have to believe it too that's a risk i just can't take they say that the truth will set you free but it's the truth that's haunting me. |
