Lyrics
My first offense
Was playing hide and seek
With all of my thoughts and fears
To my defense,
I'm unaccostomed to the lifestyle of the sincere.
Everybody knows my game
I'd sooner die than reveal my name
I played the part
Acted with empathy, and lost myself in the role
I had you fooled
You snuck inside of me and still couldn't find a soul. Everybody has their kinks, I'm not as crooked as people think
(Chorus:)
But do you trust me? Do you trust me?
I don't see why you should.
I guess I'm rusty - guess I must be
But still you do me good.
My biggest lie
Was when I told you that I have everything it takes
I'm not the guy
I just impersonate him until I get the shakes
I just made history
For once, the truth came out of me
(Repeat Chorus)
After all that's just occured,
Would it really be absurd
For you to try to take me at my word?
(Repeat Chorus)
