Exactly What You Wanted

I'm not so good realizing Who I can or cannot trust It's best to keep what matters vague With harmless lies I can adjust I get a "D" for disappointment Now there's nothing to regret Everybody's good for something At least you know what you won't get I let you down again What's another harmless Lie between friends? Now you can be disappointed I thought I gave you just exactly What you wanted

The elevation Keeps my feet from getting wet If my head feels light It must be that the air is thin I throw my arms up I don't have very far to fall I can't get hurt now Nothing interests me at all If I'm inflexible I'm right It comes so easy But I won't bore you with my insight I'm dedicated To anything that I can hate It's what I'm used to I need time to commiserate And if I bore you I don't mind I'm disagreeable So tell me something good And I'll deny it If I see something I don't mind I'll never let on Any good that you might find I'll simply yawn I'm not inflexible I'm right It comes so easy But I won't bore you with my insight

Affected by what you had lost They're not the habits you'd protect At any cost Blur the details of your hand Anything your barren conscience Can't defend The limits of attention span Successive thoughts you don't have But you still pretend Keep on talking anyway Protected by what you know No one will ever say Because you can't be pure You're self-assured
