Lyrics Buffalo - Live At The Fonda, Los Angeles, 2019 - Inner Wave

She wouldn't say it if it wasn't true
Wasn't true
A joke's a joke until it fucks with you
Is it true?
There's nothing I would want to hide from you
To hide from you
Another lie now
What am I to do, I to do?

Mother, I'm trying and I don't know why
It seems I've lost my focus again
It seems like once I think I have it all worked out
Time comes by and washes it down

Strive for what's right, I know I can't hide
I know I can't hide these feelings inside
I can't feel this way
I don't wanna say

Just once I think I have it all worked out
Just once I think I have it all worked out
And your expressions got me oh, so down
Just when I think I do

I treat you how I wouldn't want to be treated
Do as I say, not as I do
Oh, I beg you
Another day, another dollar in the bank
Be as I say, not as I am
Oh, I beg, I beg you

She wouldn't say it if it wasn't true
Wasn't true
A joke's a joke until it fucks with you
Is it true?
I don't have anything to hide from you
To hide from you
Another lie oh,
What am I to do, I to do?

Mother, I'm trying and I don't know why
Mother, I'm trying and I don't know why
Just once I thought I have it all worked out
All worked out
All worked out...
