When I was a young boy,
I was honest and I had
More self-control
If I was tempted, I [bad word] 
Then, when I got older,
I began to lie to get
Exactly what I wanted,
When I wanted it.
And I wanted it....
Now, I'm having trouble Differentiating
Between what I want
And what I need,
To make me happy.
So instead of thinking I just stop
Before I have the chance to Contemplate the
Consequences of action.

[Bridge:]
And I will turn off,
And I will shut down,
Burying the voices of my conscience, Hitting ground.
And I will turn off,
And I will shut down.
The chemicals are restless in my head

 [bad word] ]
'Cuz I lie!
Not because I want to,
But I seem to need to
All the time.
Yeah, I lie!
And I don't even know it.
Maybe this is
All a part of my flawed design.

And ever since I figured out,
That I could control other people,
I've had trouble sleeping,
With both eyes closed.
And if I asked permission,
If I make sure it's ok,
I promise I won't slip up this time.
You can [bad word] me,
But never take advice from someone,
Who just admitted to being devious,
Who just confessed to treason.
And I would also never
Ask a question,
That I cannot ask myself.
For it might
Dirty up your conscience.

 [bad word] ]
'Cuz I lie!
Not because I want to,
But I seem to need to
All the time.
Yeah, I lie!
And I don't even know it.
Maybe this is
All a part of my...

And how can you say those things,
Why can't you just believe?
And how can you say those things,
And keep a straight face?
And how can you say those things,
Why can't you just believe?
And how can you say those things,
And keep a straight face?

[Bridge]

'Cuz I lie!
Not because I want to,
But I seem to need to
All the time.
Yeah, I lie!
And I don't even know it.
Maybe this is
All a part of my...

'Cuz I lie!
And if I could control it,
Maybe I could leave it all behind.
Yeah, I lie!
And I don't even know it.
Maybe this is all a part of my
Flawed design.
