lyrics
Can you hurt yourself without hurting someone else?
Oh you bet, you bet
Have i hurt myself without hurting someone else?
Not yet, not yet
And there's nothing in this world i wanna hear right now
more than it's complicated
And there's nothing in this world i'm more afraid of
than being hated
So i try
i try, i try
to stay alive
and i lie
i lie, i lie
to be relied on
Can i talk my way out of any mess?
Oh you bet, you bet
Do my lovers know that this time is an again?
Not yet, but you bet they will
Can i love myself without loving someone else?
Not yet, not yet
Can i love myself without loving someone else?
I forget, i forget
And there's nothing in this world i wanna hear right now
more than it's complicated
And there's nothing in this world i'm more afraid of
than being hated
by my friends
So i try
i try, i try
to stay alive
and i lie
i lie, i lie
to be relied on
Is there somewhere in this world
where i can forget?
Not yet
oh you bet
