All life's fake lessons screw me
'Cause everything can't be fixed
Like a minute long montage from a movie
Over some cheesy synth-pop indie song
All we take is the instant
And disregard that the moment's truth belies
So that Churchill named Winston
Is halfway around the world with his pants in his eyes
I know
You're taking it so bad
But I just never get it
And when caught I say "So what..."
"I lie..."
I been caught in a lie
In it's web I been wasting my northern time
Cause I caught it alive
My white whale is a wooden boy inside
It's wooden inside
My apology splatters
Into some kind of overt funeral pyre
'Cause I mislead what matters
'Till you truly believe that I'm half on fire
I been shot in the eye
And while bleeding, been wasting my father's time
'Cause I don't even try
To feel something while he just prays to the sky
He prays to the sky
