Haven’t told the truth in so long
my heart is hanging in my body
like a moment that is dead and gone

I think I got too good at lying.
I think I got too good at running away.
I think I’m just an actor in this play.
Do you think there’s any hope?
Do you think there’s any hope for me?

Twelve-step program get me into heaven
let’s cut this bullshit, no more second guessing
like a ghost has followed me
all the way from Tennessee
but I ain’t fucking giving up
got a little bit of fight left in me

I think I got too good at lying.
I think I got too good at running away.
I think I’m just an actor in this play.
Do you think there’s any hope?
Do you think there’s any hope for me?
