Stroke My Ego

I hate everything about you, you can never be damn right
I love everything about me, I can never be damn wrong
They call me egotistic, but I just play along
They call me slow and autistic, but let's just sing to this song

I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly
I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly

Why don't you stroke my ego, tell me all the things i need to know
'Cause i feel so lonely now, thinking about the end is wow
But i like to gimme pride 'cause i beat myself inside
Thinking i could be the best, I should give it a rest

Of the all the people around me, thinking that i could be
More than my fake facade, then the audience applauds
How can you love yourself when you don't know what yourself is
With all the lies I can tell I still manage this

I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly
I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly

You can tell me, how I should behave
Doesn't mean I'll be doing what you say
Everything received and every dime we make
Comes and leaves like night and day

You have a lot on your mind and you speak it well
If you don't mind I'd rather you don't tell
I'm going incognito, secretly to hell
I'd like my peace though, please don't sell

But it's all chaos, sadly
Everything's a race, against me
I'll reach the finish, eventually
But 'til then, I've got shit to complete

Look at how are far we get
When we're all placing our bets
Down to every cent
I know I'm a struggling mess
But ill ace every test
'Cause you know I'm the best
Got a song about it? Yes
Ain't got time for a rest

I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly
I never wanted to be your friend, thats true, but what am i gonna do without you
I hate everything about good ol' me. I lied to you so you wouldn't talk annoyingly
