Don't Lie

We ran through thick and thin
But I think we're running dry
We're nearly at the end
It's finally time to die
We've had enough cute moments
But we're running out of range
And I'm getting sick of hearing
About how I need to change
It's getting kind of old
And you're turning kind of cold
I'm almost done
With all of this
I've had enough
I'm sick of it
Don't feed me reasons
On how I did you wrong
You know we don't belong
I've known it all along, don't lie
Remember all those times you told me
Not to be like them?
Well, I strive to contradict exactly
What you said
And all the times you told me
To just work around your plans?
You were such a goddamn hypocrite
You made me leave my friends
Just to show up at your house to talk about your problems with me
This better be the end, oh god
I'm almost done
With all of this
I've had enough
I'm sick of it
Don't feed me reasons
On how I did you wrong
You know we don't belong
I've felt this all along, don't lie
I'm almost done
With all of this
I've had enough
I'm sick of it
Don't feed me reasons
On how I did you wrong
You know we don't belong
I've felt this all along, don't lie

You couldn't let me kiss you
Even if you wanted me to
I'm getting sick of
All this melodrama and I
Completely hate having to
Harbor emotions for you
And not be allowed
To act upon it
And I'm not gonna
Ask you this year
You're probably still
Recovering from the last
And even though we're
Grown up now
We're doomed after what
I've done in the past
Everybody, get away
She's mine, all mine to own
Star-crossed and perfectly wrong
We're oh-so disaster prone
It's been like this for too long
And everything has gone wrong
I'm staring to feel
Like I'm obnoxious and it's
Hard for me to carry on
Without writing these stupid songs
It's weird how the withdrawal
Makes me nauseous
And I don't wanna
Blow it this time
I can't help but to think
About the risks I'm taking
And even though
It's different now
I'm waiting for you
To finally start waking up
Everybody, get away
She's mine, all mine to own
Star-crossed and perfectly wrong
We're oh-so disaster prone
You know I want you and
you know I need you to
Help me break this
Rejection trend
I cannot stand it and
I must demand that you
Will not leave me all alone again
I beat your trials
Give me the key
How on earth could you
Pass up this opportunity
But I'm in denial
It can't be me
May you're not really
Being subtly
Romantic
You just wanna brush me off
To you I'm weird
To you I'm creepy
You wouldn't notice if I was gone
You want me dead, you want me dead
You want me dead, you don't want me
You don't want me, you don't want me
Everybody, get away
If I can't have her, you can't either
I tried to make you understand exactly
Just how great it'd be if we
Made all our friends jealous,
I'd be nervous in your presence
OH so cute.
Or you could just say no
Like you always do

Female
I'm sorry I missed your party
Sounded like a lot of fun
But I'm sure it was great without me
You weren't sad when I couldn't come
Female
You think inviting me to
These social events would
Make up for the way you treat me
When we hang out one on one
Hey
You need to know that it's cool
If you leave me here for dead
Because it'd be way less gut-wrenching
Than if you dragged me till the end
Female
You wanted what was best
But apparently that meant pain
Because you might as well just stab me
Than keep on this deadbeat train
It's going nowhere
Just like me
Hey
You need to know that it's cool
If you leave me here for dead
Because it'd be way less guy-wrenching
Than if you dragged me till the end
Because we can't get any further
If we fail to even start
I'm turning the ignition
But the car just falls apart
Go!
Hey
You need to know that it's cool
If you leave me here for dead
Because it'd be way less guy-wrenching
Than if you dragged me till the end
Because we can't get any further
If we fail to even start
I'm turning the ignition
But the car just falls apart

I don't wanna write
A bad song
I don't wanna throw
Verse-chorus-verse in a blender
And hope that the general public
Sings along
And I don't wanna
Sell out
I can imagine all of the
Angry critics together
Droning on about the
Lack of meaning to all of my songs
And I
Don't wanna see all my friends laugh
At my overly-personal lyrics but
I can't release a bad debut
It would squander my dreams,
I can hear the
People calling, people calling,
"We need another hit,"
When any critic with a brain
Tells me to quit
And I don't wanna
Be heard
Yeah, a crowd could bring pressure
And pressure could lead to
Words that are
Misunderstood
Something I think is deep could
Come off as pretentious, I
Don't wanna risk a heartfelt song
In exchange for something catchy and
I can't go wrong if I write a piece
Completely devoid of emotion
Yes, this ocean of stress
Will be relieved after the release
But as the reviews pour in,
My joy will cease
It hurts to write
More songs
Yeah, the risk is a big one
And it would be painful
To know that the timing is off
And the singing is wrong
And the drum is too loud,
it's too loud, it's too
Hard to accept you'll never
Be better than some of
Your friends or the classics when
You know you'd write a masterpiece
If you were blessed with the talent.
You'll never know what it's like to be
respected by the Internet
But you've got the girls' attention.
I don't wanna write
A bad song
The way you'll react
Will be oh-so painful.
