i was think just that I could try and find
another line to make you think all differently
than what is really true
i didn't think you'd mind
I thought you'd like to hear
the lies and then we could all
fool ourselves and be happier than you

and it's alright is it alright?
and it's alright is that what you want me to do?

chorus:
i'll try not to mess with your mind,
yea i'll try not to give you everything you ever wanted
i'll try not to mess with your mind,
yea i'll try not to give you everything you could've been

you could've been you should have been
i'm not gonna tell you this time of everything
that you could have but been I won't tell you
what you would've been now everything is drowning
and I'd say that is a fact

and it's alright is it alright?
and it's alright is that what you want me to do?

chorus:

and it's alright is it alright?
and it's alright is that what you want me to do?

chorus:

i'll try not to give you everything you ever wanted
i'll try not to give you everything you should've been.
