[Chorus]
They would be so proud of what I've done
In this distant town, I have held my tongue
I could get used to this, maybe this ain’t so bad
But lo and behold, here it is, I take it back

[Verse 1]
Lately find myself contemplating
Cause a lot of me is not accommodating
For what goes on, so I'm up after hours
Full juice to the skyline's staggered towers
Wears you down, no one cares you wound up
Doing what ya’ swore ya' wouldn't that I like the sound of
It is too fitting those events under revision
Overwritten what occurred when you bе lying, that's a given
I wished you well in thе wishing well
Have heard an old wives' tale but they don't kiss and tell
You ought' to listen before you even act
Cause I don't get why you chase what it is you don’t attract

[Chorus]
They would be so proud of what I’ve done
In this distant town, I have held my tongue
I could get used to this, maybe this ain't so bad
But lo and behold, here it is, I take it back
[Verse 2]
So put-together, come across as stoic
But nah, please don’t mistake that with being heroic
Does a strong man cry during times of hardship?
Or does outward emotion make him a target?
When is it appropriate accepting you're dejected?
Gone under the radar too long, it was steady undetected
It's a kind of loneliness that causes damage to a psyche
There's a tightening inside my heart and things are getting dicey
You think you got problems? Well I got problems too
And I tend to minimize them cause I just have myself to lose
Lost in translation and lost in conjecture
You should be the last person to give me a lecture

[Chorus]
They would be so proud of what I’ve done
In this distant town, I have held my tongue
I could get used to this, maybe this ain't so bad
But lo and behold, here it is, I take it back
They would be so proud of what I've done
In this distant town, I have held my tongue
I could get used to this, maybe this ain't so bad
But lo and behold, here it is, I take it back
