A Crooked Melody

I've been lost alone inside my mind Where the devil on my shoulder's crying wolf tonight I've started thinkin' that he's right How could the sum of someone's life Be them believing their own lies? But I know a self-serving lullaby That'll help me sleep at night It smothers me with sweet denial Sing myself a crooked melody Where I tell myself that it's gonna be alright Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I'm gonna be alright If I lie myself to sleep, then I'm gonna be alright As long as I don't know I've been lost alone inside my head The devil on my shoulder's crying wolf again I've started thinkin' that I'm better off dead How could the sum of someone's life Be them believing their own lies? I know Sing myself a crooked melody Where I tell myself that it's gonna be alright Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I'm gonna be alright If I lie myself to sleep, then I'm gonna be alright I know that I Lie myself to sleep every single night Inside my mind, I lie I know someday the jury will call And they will say that I am a fraud An imposter, a liar, deep down, I'll know That I agree with them I know someday the jury will call And they will say that I am a fraud An imposter, a liar, deep down, I'll know That I agree with them Sing myself a crooked melody Where I tell myself that it's gonna be alright Sing myself a crooked melody Where I tell myself that it's gonna be alright Yeah, it sets my soul on fire, but I'm gonna be alright If I lie myself to sleep, then I'm gonna be alright Sing myself a crooked melody
