you can't hide
behind social graces
so don't try

to be all touchy feely
cuz you lie
in my face of all places

but i've got no
problem with that really


what bugs me
is that you believe what you're saying
what bothers me

is that you don't know how you feel
what scares me
is that while you're telling me stories

you actually
believe that they are real


and i've got
no illusions about you
and guess what?

i never did
and when i said
when i said i'll take it

i meant,
i meant as is


just give up
and admit you're an $$#hole
you would be

in some good company
i think you'd find
that you friends would forgive you

or maybe i
am just speaking for me


cuz when i look around
i think this, this is good enough
and i try to laugh

at whatever life brings
cuz when i look down
i just miss all the good stuff

when i look up
i just trip over things


and i've got
no illusions about you...


you can't hide
behind social graces
cuz i don't buy it

like everyone else
and you can lie
in my face of all places

just don't
lie to yourself


cuz i've got
no illusions about you
and guess what?

i never did
and when i say
when i say i'll take it

i mean,
i mean as is...


...as is...
