I guess deep down I always knew

I think that's why I acted the way I do

This just shows

It just proves

What a failure I really am

I mean it was quite obvious from the start

This is what my life measures up to

This is what in the end I am worth

When you think about it's not really much

It's all worthless

I'm not gonna go anywhere fast

I always had a niggling suspicion

But I tried to cover it up with a fake alter ego

But I always knew

That one day I'd have to face the truth

I can't go on living my life in fiction

Bad blood will out

Isn't that what they say

It's the same for badness

It's always there

Bubbling just below the surface

That's probably why, I tried to come up with a purpose

But it doesn't work, no it doesn't work at all

If you're the type of person I am

Then you can't ever change

You'll always be that one mistake

That one regret on two peoples hearts

Dragging them down

As soon as you start

Think about what have you done

You tried right?

You tried really hard

Or so you thought

But I'm sorry it wasn't good enough

Maybe you should try harder

It's irrelevant now

Trying doesn't change the fact

You don't deserve what you've got

It's not actually

The friends

The love the life

It's not really yours

Because in the end

At the very heart of it

Looking into the truth of it

Is a lie.
