That Would Be A Lie

Well, since I haven’t been able to write in a while, what I am about to write is a little old…sorry.

Well look at you, giving out advice, but you won’t take it.

Apparently, you can’t do anything wrong.

Everybody’s got a weak spot, and I hate to say it,

But you’ve got more than one.

Don’t try to tell me you’re perfect, because I know you’re not.

I’ve seen you at your best and, well,

Is that all you’ve got?

Yeah, I’ve seen you fall down at least once or twice.

So don’t tell me you don’t know what it feels like,

because that would be a lie.

You go on and on about how great you are.

But you can’t tell me how to do my part. When you’re pushed a little harder,

Don’t expect us to cry along with you. Aren’t you the one who said there’s not a thing

you couldn’t do?

Don’t try to tell me you’re perfect, because I know you’re not.

I’ve seen you at your best and, well,

Is that all you’ve got?

Yeah, I’ve seen you fall down at least once or twice.

So don’t tell me you don’t know what it feels like,

because that would be a lie.

Whenever you get the chance, you kick me when I’m down.

But you should know by now

That what goes around, comes around.

Don’t try to tell me you’re perfect, because I know you’re not.

I’ve seen you at your best and, well,

Is that all you’ve got?

Yeah, I’ve seen you fall down at least once or twice.

So don’t tell me you don’t know what it feels like,

because that would be a lie.

Don’t tell me you don’t know what it feels like, because that’s a lie.

So you know those people who try to make you feel small so they can feel better about themselves? Or people who just think they know everything? I’m sure we all know at least one person like this, but what can we do about them? There’s not much we really can do but shake off whatever they say, and refuse to let their words get to us. If you know what you’re doing is right, then there’s no sense in arguing or even paying attention to them. All you can do is prove that you know what you are doing.
