Denial

So many opportunities gone to waste
I let my fears come in my way
No
People say it's never been easier
To make it in this busy world
(Busy world, busy world)
But we're taught to be like everyone else
At the same time be ourselves
There's something wrong
Mmm

(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Truthful lines are worse than white lies
(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Living in denial is the perfect new state of mind
Mind
Mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
Mind

They say be confident, but don't show off
You are what you do so don't screw up
No, no
People say don't be afraid to make mistakes
That's how you learn, that's how you grow up
But we're taught to be like everyone else
At the same time be ourselves
There's something going wrong

(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Truthful lines are worse than white lies
(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Living in denial is the perfect new state of mind
Mind
Mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
Mind

So am I living my dream or am I living yours?
Don't say I'm hopeless
Just because I chose a different road
You got the best intentions
But you stick by the rules
What's socially accepted is all you think is good
Even though I'm brighter than all
The other kids at school
Society will decide I am a fool

(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Truthful lines are worse than white lies
(You're not to think you know more than we do)
Living in denial is the perfect new state of mind
Mind (Oh...)
Mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
My oh, mind
Mind
