lyrics

We could dance around the subject
and pretend that it's okay
without any confrontation
keep pretending you're not fake

I wanna lie and tell you it's okay
Ego survives, the problem goes away
It's never you you're trying to hold onto

Will your old mistakes help you remember?
Will your road to change end this lifetime?

We could dance around the subject
and pretend that it's okay
without any confrontation
keep pretending you're not fake

You'll never face reality this way
until the truth kicks you in the face
I volunteer to break the news to you

Will your road mistakes help you remember?
Will your road to change end this lifetime?

It's never you you're trying to hold onto
I volunteer to break the news to you
