The Blue Pill

{ words & music by Simon Spire }

 

I’m too honest

I’m too honest

*

Maybe now it’s about time

I start telling myself some lies

And living in disguise

‘Cause I’m too honest

*

And honesty hurts, it’ll burn

It’ll cause a lot of trouble

Why don’t I tell a lie,

And live inside a bubble?

*

You know it’s easier to never know what you’re missing

So when you hear me say ‘only truth matters’

Well don’t listen

No don’t listen

*

Throw your inspiration out the window

And drive along the streets that you already know

It only ever made your life difficult

So just stop listening – yes, you can do it!

*

You’re just too honest

You’re too honest

*

And one day you will finally see

That you don’t really want to be free

So much nicer instead to be happy

So why bother?

*

Yeah, maybe I’d rather laugh at my heart some day

And all the silly things that it used to say

And maybe now’s the time I’ll start telling some lies

*

‘Cause I’m too honest

I’m too honest

*

Maybe now it’s about time

I start telling myself some lies
