if i was dumb
then maybe I'd believe in odds
maybe I wouldn't recognize
when your lips didn't match your words
maybe then I'd have faith
faith in tomorrow
faith that maybe something would change
faith that perhaps you'll take the step
faith perhaps it was just a mistake
but I'm too smart to be fooled
fooled by your so called white lies
aware that yours didn't dilate
when you looked me in the eyes
an educated fool
for acting dumb when i knew the truth
but maybe I should’ve shut my eyes too
let the darkness paint you kind
but clarity is a curse I carry
it burns through every lie I find
********* probably
but ill call it hopeless in love
now I'm used to choosing
whatever is sweeter for you to hear
