As Is

you can't hide
 behind social graces
 so don't try
 to be all touchy feely
 cuz you lie
 in my face of all places
 but i've got no
 problem with that really
 what bugs me
 is that you believe what you're saying
 what bothers me
 is that you don't know how you feel
 what scares me
 is that while you're telling me stories
 you actually
 believe that they are real
 and i've got
 no illusions about you
 and guess what?
 i never did
 and when i said
 when i said i'll take it
 i meant,
 i meant as is
 just give up
 and admit you're an asshole
 you would be
 in some good company
 i think you'd find
 that you friends would forgive you
 or maybe i
 am just speaking for me
 cuz when i look around
 i think this, this is good enough
 and i try to laugh
 at whatever life brings
 cuz when i look down
 i just miss all the good stuff
 when i look up
 i just trip over things
 and i've got
 no illusions about you...
 you can't hide
 behind social graces
 cuz i don't buy it
 like everyone else
 and you can lie
 in my face of all places
 just don't
 lie to yourself
 cuz i've got
 no illusions about you
 and guess what?
 i never did
 and when i say
 when i say i'll take it
 i mean,
 i mean as is...
 ...as is...
