Hypocrite

If I fail to practice what I preach
If I screw up royally
In front of everyone to see
Would you still be there for me

Welcome to the brand new show
I'm thinking there's some things you should know
Doesn't matter if you're high or you're low
These people stick around as long as things go right
Welcome to the way things go
In this life you're gonna reap what you sow
Have fun figuring friend from foe
These people stick around as long as things go right

But I'm curious
And I'm terrified
What would happen if I lost this time
Would you understand
Would you change your mind
Or crucify me with the truth you find

If I fail to practice what I preach
If I screw up royally
In front of everyone to see
Would you still be there for me
And if I ruin the whole thing
You said you'd love me endlessly
But you don't pick up when I ring
Does that make you a hypocrite like me

So welcome to the streets of gold
Where you can have it all for the price of your soul
Doesn't matter if you're young or you're old
These people stick around as long as things go right
So are you gonna call or fold
It's all yours if you do what you're told
Going once, twice, three times, sold
These people stick around as long as things go right

Before you touch the speck in my eye
Maybe you should look in your own
Cause I can see a forest has grown
In the holes in your face where your soul should go
Before you touch the speck in my eye
Maybe you should look in your own
Cause I can see a forest has grown
In the holes in your face where your soul should go

If I fail to practice what I preach
If I screw up royally
In front of everyone to see
Would you still be there for me
And if I ruin the whole thing
You said you'd love me endlessly
But you don't pick up when I ring
Does that make you a hypocrite like me
