Zip Ties

I've got Zip ties for new lies I can stick them on the lip They're my size Nice to never hurt, but it's hard to never love Lies cause I'm not enough Lies cause I'm dreaming up Scenes where they always leave Are they true Probably Was I hurt You kidding me Shut it Pour another drink I think I might need a little more to drink That and a little time and space to think I'm just trying not to sink Feeling overwhelmed by all these things Strap it up where it hurts I've got zip ties lying throughout this verse See I'll tell a lie Just don't want to make it worse You want honest lines Fine Let's divert Here's a line that's kinda hard to express But I got some shit to get off my chest See you can tell one lie But it never ends Because where one lie stops Another begins. Then they'll say that they love you but it won't mean a thing Because the thing that they love is all false posturing And on the rare occasion that they hold you up with some pride You can't life yourself You're poppin' pills to get by I think I might need a little more to drink That and a little time and space to think I'm just trying not to sink Overwhelmed by all these things You see I pick these strings And then I watch it bleed Cuz It's kinda like a therapy to make some art from tragedy And maybe they'll start listening But maybe also distancing It feels a little triggering And that's why I'm delivering This pain Inside the studio And some Anger Into the microphone Better here Then take it back to home But did that once And now I live alone You see I told my lie because I was scared and hurt And at the time, I admit, it kinda seemed to work There was never that long-term plan to deceive Just a vague belief That maybe they wouldn't leave It's ironic then How these lies all began Just an apprehensive person seeking some connection But the very same fears these lies were meant to relieve Are the very the same ones That they guarantee Well there's some Zip Ties Strap them on your face Go ahead Tell some more lies Yeah I bet you will Cuz it wouldn't be the first time You say you like it real Is that a joke Or another lie Strip them off your teeth if you wanna lose the fake life Zip ties For new lies I could stick these on these lips But I can't decide
