Happy Valentine's Day

"As Is" Cover

Lyrics:

You can't hide behind social graces,
So don't try to be all touchy-feely,
'Cause you lie in my face of all places,
But I got no problem with that really.

What bugs me is that you believe what you're saying.
What bothers me is that you don't know how you feel.
What scares me is that while you're telling me stories,
You actually believe that they are real.

I've got no illusions about you.
Guess what? I never did.
When I said, when I said I'll take it,
I meant, I meant as is.

Just give up and admit you're an asshole.
You would be in some good company,
And I think you'd find that your friends would forgive you,
Or maybe I am just speaking for me.

When I look around I think, this is good enough,
And I try to laugh at whatever life brings,
'Cause when I look down I just miss all the good stuff,
And when I look up I just trip over things.

I've got no illusions about you.
Guess what? I never did.
When I said, when I said I'll take it,
I meant, I meant as is.
As is.
