It's not about what you do
It's about how you spin it
Even if the actual truth
Gets a bit shifted and twisted

You aren't bullheaded or stubborn
Just doing things your own way
It won't work for all others
But you and them ain't the same

Your failures aren't defeats
They're foundations for future victories
Even through the same mistakes repeat
Throughout your personal history

You don't have any addictions
Just some harmless predilections
You can  always quit them tomorrow
After this one last swallow

You are never in wrong
The world is always at fault
Even through all your afflictions
Happen to be self inflictions

If ignorance is bliss,
Then delusion truly is
As great as pie in the sky
So what's a few convenient lies,
To soothe your uneasy mind

It's not about what you do
It's about how you spin it
Even if the actual truth
Is replaced by complete fiction
