Persona Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder if you realise the way you come across
It's kind of crazy
Wish you could be honest about your internal dialogue
It wouldn't faze me

You like the sound of your voice
And I like the sound of mine
Every day you're suffering
But you say you're doing fine
I love the stories you tell
But I can tell when you lie

Don't fucking choke on your ego when you see me coming
I know you're performing, I know that you're hurting
So you try to hide it when you see me coming
Don't wanna confront it, I'm scared I'm annoying
You call mе your best friend to keep me at arm's lеngth

I'd write you a letter, but you'd probably burn it
Deflect and then shower me in adoration
You think you're so clever, I think you are too
You know I see you when you see me

I gotta say, I do respect the commitment to the bit
Now, that's persona
We're both under the influence of life imitating art
And we both know it

You like the sound of your voice
And I like the sound of mine
I see your face in a film
And it makes me wanna cry
I love the stories you tell
But I can tell when you lie

Don't fucking choke on your ego when you see me coming
I know you're performing, I know that you're hurting
So you try to hide it when you see me coming
Don't wanna confront it, I'm scared I'm annoying
You call me your best friend, I secretly love it

I find it frustrating
Sometimes I get triggered
And that's probably 'cause you and I are alike, yeah
I think I'm so clever, you think I am too
I know you see me when I see you

When you see me
When I see you
When you see me
When I see you
