[Verse 1]
For someone with more convictions than most books bound in leather
I found it pretty easy to amend one of my chapters
With this amazing trick I can make any distance jump
Logical or otherwise if I get a running start

[Chorus]
I just lie to myself
(It's just as easy as that)
I just lie to myself
(It's just as easy as that)

[Verse 2]
Down at the western bar I studied the wood grain
And through each glass the detail in the counter lost its shape
Now that I've got this truth serum all pumping through my veins
I can tell you pretty honestly that my vice and I aren't chained

[Chorus]
I just lied to myself
(It's just as easy as that)
I just lied to myself
(It's just as easy as that)

[Bridge]
And if this lying has a consequence, I'm sure I could say something that could change its tune
I didn't know it- "I'm so sorry" is a personal favorite that I'd really love to use
If all that goes up must come down
How long do I have before I hit the ground?
If all that goes up must come down
How long do I have before I hit the ground?
If all that goes up must come down
How long do I have before I hit the ground?
If all that goes up must come down
How long do I have before I hit the ground?
