The Truth I Tell Myself
Wheatus

You don't have to tell me that I'm stubborn
'Cause I'm not
And I know ?cause it runs in my family
It 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 your surprised
Like when will I get wise
But I'll just drive them same dead ends I've tried
And I think I know why

[Chorus:]
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 some thin'
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 n' 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

[Chorus]

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 my charming self destructive disposition of I
Yeah all happy endings are for fools
Who feel like they will never loose
Folks, who think there's a God out there then 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?

[Chorus]

There's no direction between where I am
And where I'm supposed to be
The truth I tell myself not to believe
