Lyrics
You don't want to know, the truth will only hurt you
You prefer not to learn the truth as it may be painful.
And I don't want to go, back down that road I hate to
You're reluctant to revisit a troublesome past.
I've been trying so long to deal with what I've done
Struggling for a while to cope with the consequences of your actions.
You say you want a song, well here you go have this one
Offering a song as a form of expression or apology.
I'm a boy with an endless lie
Describing oneself as someone who habitually lies.
See the world through my bad black eyes
Viewing the world with a negative perspective ("bad black eyes").
But it's alright, if it's alright
Despite the negativity, expressing acceptance or indifference.
Don't mean to be mean, okay go on just say
Acknowledging a potential unkindness and giving permission to speak.
Exactly what I've been you're right and don't I know it
Recognizing and accepting past mistakes.
It's immaturity, I can't wash clean my conscience
Attributing errors to immaturity, struggling with a guilty conscience.
The truth is killing me could it make any difference
The burden of truth is causing distress, questioning its impact.
I'm a boy with an endless lie
Reiterating the tendency to deceive.
See the world through my bad black eyes
Continuing to perceive the world negatively.
But it's alright, if it's alright
Repeating the acceptance or indifference despite the negativity.
I'm a boy with an endless lie
Emphasizing the recurring pattern of dishonesty.
I'm a boy with an endless lie
Reaffirming the repetitive nature of the endless lie.
(But it's alright)
Expressing acceptance or indifference once again.
(But it's alright)
Reiterating the sentiment that it's alright despite the ongoing deception.
