Living a lie
Keep telling yourself,
"This time will be different,
because its honest"
But how can it be,
When you're lying to yourself?
Old, faithful, denial.
Consider this, friend.
You're worth being honest with,
But truth starts at home.

YOU
You kissed my flaws and made them perfect
You touched my flaws and made them brave
You loved my brokenness and made me whole
You touched my flaws and made them brave
You loved my brokenness and made me whole

Nobody
Thank you for trusting yourself
You have made it very far
Yet you are just getting started
You have made it very far
Yet you are just getting started

Nothing More Than Minor Distractions
I know that some
of us guys
would go crazy
over some hot chick in
a bikini. But such
things are nothing more than
minor distractions to one like me.

When I Say "No", I Mean "No"!
Please believe me
when I say
that I would not
let myself have sex with
this one person even
if you were to throw in
a penthouse apartment that's rent free!

Dog vs. Buffalo
My psychologist is a dog
And I am a buffalo
And I need help
And we can not meet
What do I do now?
And I am a buffalo
And I need help
And we can not meet
What do I do now?
