Duncan Sheik
There’s No Telling
[Intro]
I'm not gonna sugar coat it
I'm not gonna sugar coat it, no

[Verse 1]
Back in the day I was floating away
On a wave of neon pleasure
Then it came to an end, now I fail to pretend
To enjoy my quiet leisure
I did x, y and z, mostly for free
When I paid, it was totally worth it
Then wrong became right in the middle of the night
Well, I never said I was perfect

[Chorus]
There in the mirror I see
A sad and lonely man
There's no telling, there's no telling
What I really am
And in my mind you'll find
Such a great and wondrous plan
There's nobody, there's nobody
Thеre to give a damn

[Verse 2]
I danced in thе line of fire
A bullet proof ballerina
Had a real field day and I still got away
So don't cry for me, Argentina
Now I dabble in repentance
But you can't turn back the clock
When you dropped your moral compass
In a bathtub in Bangkok
[Bridge]
Oh, oh-oh, oh, is that who I was?
Oh, oh-oh, oh, is this who I am?
Oh, oh-oh, oh, my mind does what it does
Oh, oh-oh, oh, and it's a total sham

[Chorus]
Here in the mirror may be
A sad and lonely man
There's no telling, there's no telling
What I really am
And in my mind you'll find
Such a great and wondrous plans
There's nobody, there's nobody
There to give a damn

[Post-Chorus]
There's no telling
There's no telling
There's no telling
What I am
There's nobody
There's nobody
There's nobody
To give a damn
[Outro]
So no need to sugar coat it
No need to sugar coat it
No need to sugar coat it anymore
