fake a smile (feat. VRSTY)

If madness is a lake
Than we're damaging the lifeboats
Trying not to sink
But we're drowning in denial
White flag, violence on the mind
So I'm thinkin' I'm a monster, a monster

Paranoid, can't avoid it, built to fall
Truth is that I hate the way we played it off
And now there's nothing left that we can say at all
We made a monster, a monster

Jealousy just let me breathe
Here's a note to self
I threw out my fucks
Burned the paper trail

Think I'm gettin' tired of me
So come and start a fire with me
Now I just wanna lie through my teeth
I'm gonna fake a smile then I'll leave
(Fuck it all and fake a smile)

Diggin' down we're falling out
Guess we're gonna go dragging this down again
And now it took a storm to see
That the bricks we laid together weren't that strong
Last call

You tell me a lot that I still think about now
And I thought I could trust you 'til I figured you out
You were doing things just for the attention
You planted a seed that I let grow into your bad intentions

Jealousy just let me breathe
Here's a note to self
I threw out my fucks
Burned the paper trail

Think I'm gettin' tired of me
So come and start a fire with me
Now I just wanna lie through my teeth
I'm gonna fake a smile then I'll leave
(Fuck it all and fake a smile)

Tryin' to pry, but I see
The dominoes are fallin' beneath
The evidence is down at our feet now
My lungs are gonna break if I don't breathe out

If madness is a lake
Than we're damaging the lifeboats
Trying not to sink
But we're drowning in denial
White flag, violence on the mind
So I'm thinkin' I'm a monster, a monster

I'm falling out of frame, pull my face in
But the character remains when you drag me out

(I'm a monster, monster)
(A monster, monster)

(Jealousy just let me breathe)

Think I'm gettin' tired of me
So come and start a fire with me
Now I just wanna lie through my teeth
I'm gonna fake a smile then I'll leave
(Fuck it all and fake a smile)

Tryin' to pry, but I see
The dominoes are fallin' beneath
The evidence is down at our feet now
My lungs are gonna break if I don't breathe out

I think I'm gettin' tired of me
So come and start a fire with me

I'm gonna fake a smile then I'll leave

The evidence is down at our feet now
My lungs are gonna break if I don't breathe out
