I know you were expecting
much more than perfection
a little less of the same shit I've done
but I roll over now count me off
I'm at a loss for sleep but what I've lost is me
I've made a copy of myself
to awake in case I'm someone else.
It goes five five lead one,
six six six to change it up
it would be awesome to be right
but I'm just a fraud
this is the last one on my list
and I'm fighting myself to make her exist
I know you were expecting a hustle in your ear
but I'm sorry next time
I'll cut myself up to make me work
steal Martin's moves to make hits like hers
but I'm tired of strait fucking form
breaking my balls just to make them like me more
if I wanted to find God I'd just look behind me
So much for using my education to make detailed equations
I might as well burn my degree
and spend my time at Mcdonalds or Arbys

first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?
we started out in the summer i thought
but i've been wrong before
you said you don't understand
why i didn't walk out the door
and i wish i could feign ignorance
but i know just what i did
you were too good for me
and i just gave you the slip
first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?
you threw me out when the weather got cold
like a dirty pair of gloves
i should've taken the love you gave
but i was lookin' for something else
your eyes burned through me so bright
that i could barely see
and you said i'm an asshole
and i can't make you believe me
first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?
first things first i know i'm wrong
but i didn't mean to lead you on
and when i found out that you weren't the one
i should've told the truth
and i'm not proud of what i did to you
hear me out so i might be forgiven too
give me one more chance to prove i'm sorry
so i can fall asleep knowing that you're alright
