[Chorus]
Sometimes, I'm scared of being honest
I say, I'm fine
And that's the way I get in trouble
I try
But I try
Oh, I try
And make sure everything is always alright
And that's the way I get in trouble
Last night, for once I think I thought about me
I thought about me
Oh

[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm selfish with things that I want
Maybe I'm tired of no answers from God
Maybe I think that I'm telling the truth
But the truth is I'm selling the lies that I bought
Looking for answers, I know that's in front of me
Getting excuses before an apology
Negligence is made from living so comfortably
Somеthing's gotta change, or honesty's costing me
How much can I givе? How much can I try?
How much can I hurt? How much can I lie?
How much did I live while I'm still alive?
How much did I feel before I said I'm fine?
Lots of excuses, control my perception, I know that's so useless
What am I pursuing?
Am I happy or not, like what am I doing? I
[Pre-Chorus]
Lie to myself, yeah
I lie to myself just so I can save feelings of everyone else
Not be a burden, just one that can help
As long as you're fine, who cares how I felt?
And that's what's been eating me
Working on freeing me
Walking contradiction, what I've been seen to be
Healing everyone is what has been killing me
Time that I tell you that

[Chorus]
Sometimes, I'm scared of being honest
I say, I'm fine
And that's the way I get in trouble
I try
But I try
Oh, I try
And make sure everything is always alright
And that's the way I get in trouble
Last night, for once I think I thought about me
I thought about me
Oh

[Verse 2]
Honestly scared to be honest, I've done many things I'm not proud of
I run from the crowd that just cares who's the hottest on Billboard
Don't let me get caught up in places I don't want a part of, I
Struggle to balance my life with impression
All of the money and tension
Vampires every direction
Don't be surprised, how many count all your blessings?
My therapist told me that
I shouldn't be living as everyone's hero
My therapist told me that
It's okay to say no, even though I can't bear to
I know where my weakness at
If I focused on me, it could all be so simple
These thoughts in my head, if they just could be gentle
If showin' my feelings could just be less stressful, 'cause
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I'm scared of being honest
I say, I'm fine
And that's the way I get in trouble
I try
But I try
Oh
