[Verse 1]
I'm not the man I'd like you to think I am
And I know you're starting to realize
Waiting for something to happen, 5 A.M
Nothing left now but my real lies
So how do I shake this feeling
That you just kind of stopped believing ?
God knows I would have if I were you
But I guess you always knew
[Chorus]
I took the royal road
But I fucked it up again
Now I carry a heavy load
And can't expect a helping hand
I took the royal road
But I made a wrong turn
Now my heart can explode
I swear I'll just let it burn
[Bridge]
But it's alright, I live in a lie
Somewhere inside I swear I'm still fine
And it's alright, just say goodbye
Somehow I know you're still mine
It's alright, don't ask me why
Sometimes I'd like to be blind
But it's alright, I won't close an eye
This time I want to see myself die
[Verse 2]
Soon everybody will see me for what I am
And it's keeping me up at night
Banging on my mirror, 6 A.M
There's nothing more to write
I can't keep any of my promises
Especially not the ones I made to myself
I can't figure out what my problem is
Hiding my troubles on the top shelf
[Chorus]
I took the royal road
And I fucked it up again
Now I carry a heavy load
And can't expect a helping hand
I took the royal road
But I made a wrong turn
Now my heart can explode
I swear I'll just let it burn
[Bridge]
But it's alright, I live in a lie
Somewhere inside I swear I'm still fine
And it's alright, just say goodbye
Somehow I know you're still mine
It's alright, don't ask me why
Sometimes I'd like to be blind
But it's alright, I won't close an eye
This time I want to see myself die
I'm not the man I'd like you to think I am
And I know you're starting to realize
Waiting for something to happen, 5 A.M
Nothing left now but my real lies
So how do I shake this feeling
That you just kind of stopped believing ?
God knows I would have if I were you
But I guess you always knew
[Chorus]
I took the royal road
But I fucked it up again
Now I carry a heavy load
And can't expect a helping hand
I took the royal road
But I made a wrong turn
Now my heart can explode
I swear I'll just let it burn
[Bridge]
But it's alright, I live in a lie
Somewhere inside I swear I'm still fine
And it's alright, just say goodbye
Somehow I know you're still mine
It's alright, don't ask me why
Sometimes I'd like to be blind
But it's alright, I won't close an eye
This time I want to see myself die
[Verse 2]
Soon everybody will see me for what I am

Somehow I know you're still mine
It's alright, don't ask me why
Sometimes I'd like to be blind
But it's alright, I won't close an eye
This time I want to see myself die
