If you sit me down, to explain all the trials you've endured
Around and around, the refrain rings the same each time it's heard
Entertain the notion, that the only thing I hear
Is the crack of a smile, in a face that ain't so sincere

When measuring out your quality
It is only as deep as your modesty

As your insides fall to pieces
Shattered by the silent treatment
Things are only fragile till they break

Feigning your humility
It only serves to weaken the
Most common observations that you make

Drown me out in conversation
Surf a wave of provocation
Wash away my interest in your wake

I think you can, reach a place where the impetus is pure
You'll understand, a disgrace is the thing that makes us feel...
Level on the inside, level on the outside
I'm content to know it
I don't need to show it
