No Strings Detached

I am a liar, always been, maybe always will be

I lie to myself and everyone around me

I say things I don’t mean and don’t say things I mean

I’m pathetic like that

Shackled with these chains I put on myself

There might have been a little nudge from sb else

But really it was and is me

Somehow it’s like my life isn’t my own

Like a puppet, strings were put on us by the world around us, by parents

Not always out of spite but it did happen and now we are no longer free
