paper bird (at) - a lie a lie (slow down) lyrics

[verse 1]
the science of lying is based on good timing
and being able to imagine every truth
so every truth is pictured on billboards and i’ll make sure
it’s the same white on every single tooth
telling me i’m not enough, that’s what you consist of
if you can’t blend in, you can’t improve
but i need direction, a summary of the section
telling me where improvement leads to
i’m pretty on the left side, i lie awake at night
this fl!cker has invadеd my brain
and i can’t rest and i can’t sleep, i drown in rivers ankle deep
until wе finally look the same

[chorus]
(slow down) i gotta work on that smirk
i gotta run to keep up (slow down)
i slow down, hear from that sound
that my voice is being dubbed (slow down)
and i’ll get loose ’cause what i do
i do best on my own (slow down)
and what i’ll be, and what i’ll need
is in me and me and me and me
and me and me and me and me alone

[verse 2]
thanks for the blindfold; i would get cold
and i will hold onto my sash
when it starts again, when they try to be my friends
by telling me i need to grow up fast
and the world spins around a pole, with a grin, dressed in golden robes
disguising every wound and lie
and now i’m stuck in starstruck mode, my pickup lines have all been told
and i won’t ask for her alibi
[bridge]
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down (i won’t)
i slow down, i slow down (work)
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down (i won’t)
i slow down, i slow down (work)
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down (i won’t)
i slow down, i slow down (work)
i slow down, i slow down
i slow down, i slow down (i won’t)
i slow down, i slow down (work on it—)

[verse 3]
being advised to break the ice, whether in good or bad times
whether rich or poor, whatever you do
i was told to twist my hair, and put it behind my ear
keep a low profile, a pretty front view
but i will pick my nose, i got a role that i chose
it’s schizophrenic and beautiful
and i will be a changeling, whatever the starlet sings
the only thing i can’t stay true to is
[chorus]
i will not work on that smirk
i will not run to keep up
i slow down, hear from that sound
that my voice is being dubbed (slow down)
and i’ll get loose ’cause what i’ll do
i do best on my own (slow down)
and what i’ll be and what i’ll need
is in me and me and me and me
and me and me and me and me (slow down)

i will not work on that smirk
i will not run to keep up (slow down)
i slow down, hear from that sound
that my voice is being dubbed (slow down)
and i’ll get loose ’cause what i’ll do
i do best on my own (slow down)
and what i’ll be and what i’ll need
is in me and me and me and me
and me and me and me and me (slow down)

i will not work on that smirk!
i will not run to keep up! (slow down)
i slow down, hear from that sound
that my voice is being dubbed! (i slow down)
and i’ll get loose ’cause what i do
i do best on my own! (slow down)
and what i’ll be and what i need
is in me and me and me and me
and me and me and me and me alone!
[outro]
slow down
me and me and me and me
slow down
me and me and me and me
slow down
slow, slow down
