Diplomacy Lyrics

"girls so skinny it could be their legacy"

Eve ate the apple,

She didn't care about being skinny

These heroin chic, magazines

Turned sickness into a luxury

Haven't eaten in a day,

Nearly passed out on Wednesday

But I said I'm ok, I'm ok (I'm ok, I'm ok)

You don't know me

I haven't told the truth in a long time

I'm reluctant

You'd like me better if I fed you a lie

My walls are so tall

I barely register that they're there at all

All my lies are so sold to people please

But sometimes it feels difficult to breathe

I watch the grime, it distracts from my appetite

"What's your favorite song"

(What if they don't like me anymore)

But my no response ends up being worse

Caught in the middle of who I want to be, and how I want to be portrayed,

I just end up boring

You don't know me

I haven't told the truth in a long time

I'm reluctant

You'd like me better if I fed you a lie

My walls are so tall

I barely register that they're there at all

All my lies are so sold to people please

But sometimes it's difficult to breathe

When all I ever do is enact diplomacy

Of all the lies I fed you,

will you learn to read too

Between the lines?

There a battle between my head and my heart

Should I listen to the voice of my father or my own heartbeat
