    Lyrics:
    True, you say you are
    I'll be honest when I say I'm not
    Use any excuse to get what I want
    I tell you what you wanna hear
    Hurting you is the only thing that I could do
    And I tried to make a motive of good intention without attention
    So I'll have the best behavior
    I'm not a savior. I have too many layers
    Sorry I missed your call. Was it distress?
    If I reach past your smile, grab an SOS, do I shatter the illusion?
    Am I doing you a favor?
    Is there anything to salvage?
    Is there anything to savor?
    Am I wasting time that I don't have?
    Convincing bystanders around us that it's not that bad?
    Well, it's pretty bad so head back home
    Flip through a book and pick a god to thank you're not alone
    Narcissus broke a mirror and put the shards into his arm
    Via hypodermic needle but it didn't do him harm
    A little self-reflection went a long, long way
    Now he's hiding in the cellar, scared to show the world his face
    Well, I've never learned a lesson that I didn't teach myself
    I may have lost my shot at heaven, but I bored myself with hell
    My thoughts on Mother Nature? Hurt her every chance you get
    I've really come to hate her. Let's cross her off the list
    Every skipped stone shears the river into liquid
    Shining slivers like the steady scalpel of a surgeon
    Selling virgin flesh to the highest bidder
    If only all the oracles of old could order us to open doors
    That we have closed or offer options over ones that we naively chose
    What we don't know we don't know we don't know
    Stay calm! Stay silent! "Seek out the sewers," sang out the sirens
    I am the cleaner, you're the mess
    Your little white flag is right by your side so just fly it
