lyrics

it's only awkward if you say it is, but that's how we make it out to be
even the mountains know when to stop growing taller
big words can act as a cover, but you'll always be smaller
i've been working since the sun went down, but i can't get myself over
what is the first thing you'd want to see if you had it all easy?

cheaters, they'll never lie
and quitters, they'll never die
how is the picture rare if i see it everywhere?

inside i'll never lie
and cravings, they'll never die
why do you seem so scared when my fears are everywhere?

if you had just one memory then maybe this could all work out
he's tired of having too much time when you want to take a break
and when you come back the next day in his eyes you see dismay
now go dismiss yourself because i'm sure it was all worth it
am i right? or am i right?
are you getting this all down?
am i right? or am i right?
do you need help with that frown?
are you wrong? or are you wrong?
the window's closed, but it still feels cold
are you wrong? or are you wrong?
your negativity is so bold
