Makes me wonder if it's really effortless,

Or if I'm fooling myself?

'Cause if I have to put so much of me

Into trying not to care,

Where am I then?

I'm lying. 



And do you see the way I walk away?

I never really know what I should say,

So it comes out wrong,

If it comes out at all.



So I straighten myself out,

I bring me back down,

"Don't be ridiculous,

You are so wrong."

But then I'm drifting,

On a wave of thought.

I get lost in the tides,

And I can barely recognize myself.



I don't mind,

'Cause do you see the way I walk away?

I never really know what I should say,

So it comes out wrong,

If it comes out at all.



So I try to act the way I would

If I was someone that wasn't me.

But you wipe that away, don't you?

And I am falling down,

I am tripping on words,

I am out of my mind.

You know, this is not like me.

I'm not usually happy, I swear.



And do you see the way I walk away?

I never really know what I should say

So it comes out wrong.



And I turn my back

And I don't look back.

I am unafraid...



...but really I'm just kidding.



I'm terrified,

And I think I like it.



And I don't care if I look ridiculous,

Trying to be effortless.
