| i would love to be better | |
| i would love to be free | |
| i would love to be perfect | |
| when you look at me | |
| but instead i'm still crying | |
| yes instead i'm still lying | |
| sad to say i'm still trying | |
| not to be me | |
| when i see all the weakness | |
| that i turned into sickness | |
| i still think i can slide | |
| just fine on the ice | |
| it's not easy to be honest | |
| sometimes i'm just astonished | |
| how hard it can be to be true | |
| [CHORUS:] | |
| why do i lie? | |
| is it just to get by | |
| if i give up my lines | |
| will i die? | |
| if fortunes are favored | |
| then i am in labor | |
| and i'm trying so hard | |
| to leave lying behind | |
| i don't want to be hazy | |
| i don't think that i'm crazy | |
| but i've had some moments | |
| where i am not sure | |
| and if you can forgive me | |
| for just being human | |
| then i will try harder | |
| to keep my words pure | |
| i could be on the border | |
| it could be a disorder | |
| honestly i think | |
| that i can come clean | |
| and all of my stories might even be boring | |
| if i can tell you | |
| what they all mean | |
| [CHORUS] |
