Wheatus - The Truth I Tell Myself Lyrics

Send "The Truth I Tell Myself" ringtone to your cell

You don't have to tell me that i'm stubborn

'cause i'm not

And i know ?cause it runs in my family

And skips every other generation

You don't have to save my soul

Or make me feel like i'm in control

It's not worth the double scotch whiskey

That you'd have to buy me

You look like you're surprised

Like when will i get wise

But i'll just drive the same dead ends i've tried

And i think i know why

There's no connection between what i want

And what is good for me

The truth i tell myself not to believe

You don't know i could have been somethin'

But i'm not and i know that it's somebody else's fault

Just like every other thing

That's ever happened to me

Yeah i could have been like the king

Or like someone who could really sing

Folks would line up round the corner

Just so they could come and hear me

There i go again

Them devils love their sin

Well they can't end what i do not begin

So i'm safe where i'm in

And there's no connection between what i want

And what is good for me

The truth i tell myself not to believe

There's no direction between where i am

And where i'm supposed to be

The truth i tell myself not to believe

Don't think that i'm expecting you to stay

'cause you won't and i know

'cause i've seen it a million times

It's just a charming self destructive disposition of i

Yeah all those happy endings are for fools

Who feel like they will never lose

Folks who think there's a god out there

That's gonna save them

I'll get this 'round my friend

And then we can start again

Just like we did when we were who we are

Have we come that far?

There's no connection between what i want

And what is good for me

The truth i tell myself not to believe

There's no direction between where i am

And where i'm supposed to be

The truth i tell myself not to believe
