Kayfabing the Boys

The devil on my shoulder's
Always screamin' in my ear
When the people that I love
Tell me the things I need to hear
He knows me better than anyone
And he hates my fuckin' guts
I've been learnin' not to listen
But nothin' seems to shut him up

So I'm sorry if I seem zoned out
It's probably cause I am as fuck
I wanna see if he'll give up
If I just sit here long enough
Plus, the peace and quiet is worth it

Sandy always said
"Better an empty house than a bad tenant"
He meant burps
But I think it works for thinkin' too

If I was thinkin' all the time
I'd just be worried all the time
So I avoid it altogether
And all in all I feel all right

All right; I hate when people lie
I don't think I ever do
'Cept if I'm lyin' to myself as well
I guess I wouldn't know I was lyin' to you?

I'd never lie to you
Unless I do without tryin' to
When I tell you I don't need the things
You keep telling me I do
