lyrics

Keep it down who are you trying to be
love yourself well you took that literally
stop saying the same things that have already been said
popularity will not get you there
stop talking about things that you know nothing about
you know goo men that treat their women fair
You didn't mention them

Nobody cares who are you trying to please
don't act so virtuous what are you even trying to preach
stop singing the same way that has already been sung
that childish affectation's been done enough
how many photos of you on your phone have you really got
are you as happy as you let on
I bet you're not

Wait the truth is getting away
hey wait the truth just gets in the way
wait hey the truth's whatever you make it
wait the truth has something to say
so let it speak

I'm probably just as bad as everyone I can't stand
In fact I think I'm probably worse
I'd like to make money but I'm not good at that
Can't tell if what i've got's a blessing or curse (wait)

I've been a bit bitter about falling behind
but i'm seeing something better in settling down
anyway there's always some big dog with something to hide
and the truth doesn't matter anyhow
the truth is out
the truth is out
the truth is ours
