Don't Flatter Yourself Songtext

I haven't slept in days
The secrets I keep keep me awake
And they're wearing on my mind
It feels like I'm living a double life
And you're only with me half the time
This is no way to live, it's a terrible joke
It's just waiting to die

Well I guess we never grew up, just got older
But I won't soil my good name

And I'm trying to pretend
That all of my friends
Aren't liars and cheaters
Double-crossers and deceivers
And given your defense,
I'm a liar at my best
But I don't have the strength to pick myself back up again

Focusing on little things
Like how everyone is laughing at me
And all those years I wasted living in a lie
Lock myself in my room
I haven't seen my friends in days
And honestly, I haven't tried
I'll just bury myself alive

And I'm trying to pretend
That all of my friends
Aren't liars and cheaters
Double-crossers and deceivers
And given your defense,
I'm a liar at my best
But I don't have the strength to pick myself back up again

It's too late to say, "I'm sorry"
It's too late now
And all my friends, they know your name
But we both made the same mistakes
And you couldn't keep the promises you made
So let's just go our separate ways
There's nothing left for me to say except
How I always knew you were fake

I guess you never grew up, just got older
But I won't soil my good name

And I'm trying to pretend
That all of my friends
Aren't liars and cheaters
Double-crossers and deceivers
And given your defense,
I'm a liar at my best
But I don't have the strength to pick myself back up
Strength to pick myself back up
I'm too weak to get back up again
