I only know how to lie
I guess I really can't dodge it this time
No law to pardon my crime
No clemency for this evil of mine
Things don't look better today
The mask I wear is crumbling away
Lapsing in depravity
I didn't see what was happening to me

Come here, no go away, stay
I've hidden it away

Mayday, find me if you think you can
Then you can leave and never hold me close again
Hey mayday, find me if you think you can
But could you smile for me at the very end

Say woah
I know I'm nothing more than an empty ghost
Say woah
An empty shell of lies and it haunts me so, hey

Although no is what I meant
I gave a yes and lied yet again
And yeah I have my regrets
It's just so easy to plead innocent
Playing the victim are you
Just say a prayer or heck, maybe two
So busy talking away
Unknown to me, I was digging my grave

The guilt is here to stay, grey
Manipulate away

Mayday, go ahead and fire away
Since honesty is hard for me to find today
Hey mayday, go ahead and judge away
I chose to be this kind of person anyway

Say woah
I know I'm nothing more than a wandering ghost
Say woah
An empty shell that's nothing but a void at most, hey

Wishing for the many things I lack within
I'm greeted by a me I didn't know again
Still I kept on moving right on through the sea
So dark a night that had come over me

Could you ever love me as I am today
Somebody fed on ego, lived forever this way
When you look at me who do you actually see
This lonely toxic clown could be

Mayday, find me if you think you can
Then you can leave and never hold me close again
Hey mayday, find me if you think you can
But could you smile for me at the very end

Mayday, go ahead and fire away
Since honesty is hard for me to find today
Hey mayday, go ahead and judge away
I chose to be this kind of person anyway

Hey mayday, tell them who I really am
Since everything I know's about to meet its end
Hey mayday, dancing with the ghost I am
You figure out the me you knew was just a sham

Say woah
Know I'm nothing more than an empty ghost
Say woah
An empty shell of lies and it haunts me so
Say woah
I know I'm nothing more than a wandering ghost
Say woah
An empty shell that's nothing but a void at most

I only know how to lie
I guess I really can't dodge it this time
No law to pardon my crime
No clemency for this evil of mine
