I've heard what everyone says about you
And now I see that most of it is true
When I was a kid I thought you were so very cool
But now I see that you are really just a fool
And it's really disappointing cuz I thought you were a hero
I guess it was the lies that always got you through the years though
Now it's catching up to you and it makes you feel so fearful
Cuz you've been exposed, now everyone knows, you're a fake
I don't mean to make this personal, but you know who you are
If you were closer you might see the tears hit my guitar
But you were never close to anyone, acting psycho-social
You can overdose in sorrow, but now I will be vocal (Cuz it's)
And it's really disappointing cuz I thought you were a hero
I guess it was the lies that always got you through the years though
Now it's catching up to you and it makes you feel so fearful
Cuz you've been exposed, now everyone knows, you're in denial
Well I guess I'll say one last thing before I drive away
Being back around here has somehow restored my faith
Even through the pain and sorrow, I will fight for a tomorrow
And I really want to see you follow through
And it's really disappointing when I thought you were a hero
I guess it was the lies that always got you through the years though
Now it's catching up to you and it makes you feel so fearful
Cuz you've been exposed, now everyone knows
