It's Hardly an Ivory Tower

lyrics

Shake my hand,
Return my smile,
Shake my confidence with fallacy.

We've both been round the block a few times now,
But you act like we're not one and the same.

You're becoming a rival,
And you're waiting for a gap in the conversation
To tell me how you've been,
And how you're living the dream.

But are you living a lie?
Our paths may keep on crossing,
But we'll never see eye to eye,
'Cos every step of the way - you'll always look down on me
And the root of the problem?
You're trying to put me down to cover up your insecurities
So take a climb down!

Try some fucking honesty and try to be yourself;
'Cos you've forgotten who you are today.

Take some time
To realise
That this life is only fallacy

We're heading for the same destination now,
But you can't quite recognise your own face.

It's not a fight for survival,
And we never entered into a competition,
To see who can get there first
That was never the dream!

But are you living a lie?
Our paths may keep on crossing,
But we'll never see eye to eye
'Cos every step of the way - you'll always look down on me
And the root of the problem?
You're trying to put me down to cover up your insecurities
So take a climb down...

Truth or dare - I dare you to tell the truth.
