It's something that we do when no one's around

I feel a little better now don't change things on me now

Don't go letting your feelings show

Just let your yes be yes and your no be no

My how these vices have grown the hardness inside is start'n to show

My life is goin' by so fast and I'm quickly start'n to fade

It is a short life and something keeps tell'n me

That these mementos aren't going to last

Chorus:

Set me straight and I'll make amends

Set this town on fire

And let it burn to the ground

Cause I've had enough of pushing myself around

It's this cloud we're under that turns us from white to grey

It's the choices we make that leave us wondering who we are

This misunderstanding or corruption of purpose

Has become our own three-ring circus
