[Verse 1]
Dictate what you think is pivotal
Mandate just for the sake of ego
Controlling your decision making
The world we're missing is still ours for the taking
[Verse 2]
Accelerate into isolation
Gravitate to comfort, presentation
Anxiety laden, restless confusion
No courage, no confidence, absent delusion
[Pre-Chorus]
Most of us would be lying
Holding fast to denying
If we said we're all feeling swell and content
All of us would be slipping
Backpedaling, gripping
So tight to our fragile confidence
[Chorus]
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
[Verse 3]
Activate with hope and integrity
Honesty: the only true currency
Devastate the guilt, not the guilty
And I promise a better night's sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
Most of us would be lying
Holding fast to denying
If we said we're all feeling swell and content
All of us would be slipping
Backpedaling, gripping
So tight to our fragile confidence
[Chorus]
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
We're trying
Just to convince the world we're
Something that we can't be
We are not afraid of being alone
Of being caught by ourselves
With only our own thoughts
[Outro]
All of us would be slipping
Backpedaling, gripping
So tight to our fragile confidence
