Fiction Over Fact Lyrics

For too long now I overcomplicate

I rely on medication

For too long now I cannot impress

I keep altering the message

Just like always believing fiction over fact

I get caught up in distraction

Just like always I'm censoring the truth

I'm writing lies just like I used to

I guess that this is growing up

I felt the sting when I was younger

I thought that I'd be strong enough

But now I feel like giving up just to forget

For too long now I attempt to disabuse

But I keep jumping to conclusions

Just like always intrusive thoughts I can't erase

I try my hardest just to face them

I guess that this is growing up

I thought I'd grow when I was older

I thought that I'd be strong enough

But now I feel like giving up just to forget

I guess that this is growing up

I felt the sting when I was younger

I thought that I'd be strong enough

I thought I'd grow when I was older

I guess that this is growing up

I felt the sting when I was younger

Yeah I guess that this is growing up

But now I feel like giving up just to forget
