Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The band plays on like it's supposed to
Follow suit because it ain't nothin' new beneath the solar
Systems of oppression got me aloof
The web control us, puppet master got me shinin' his shoes, collectin' quarters
Didn't know I was about that life till his was over
You worry 'bout the wrong things, the wrong things
Why would you play the long game? It's not sane
We all change
[Chorus]
Why would you tell me that you love me when you don't?
No time for arguin', I'm hangin' up the phone
You made a promise, said you'd never do me wrong
Guess that doesn't matter
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
[Verse 2]
But, baby, everybody love me, I'm a joint
Still, my heart is hollow, I don't mean to disappoint
Shooting for the stars and gassing bitches on the 'Gram is how a boy becomes a man
I guess I'm buoyant as a boat
Floating like a butterfly, you got me on the ropes
I'm tryna dance with feet of Clay
If cash is all these women want, then I don't wanna fight no more
Who told the lie and said that life was short?
Tall tales I know all too well
'Cause every moment that we shared felt like a Polaroid
Sometimes you gotta shake it up to see what's really there
Is it in the air?
[Chorus]
Why would you tell me that you love me when you don't?
No time for arguin', I'm hangin' up the phone
You made a promise, said you'd never do me wrong
Guess that doesn't matter
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
[Outro]
Why would you tell me that you love me when you don't?
No time for arguin', I'm hanging up the phone
You made a promise, said you'll never do me wrong
Guess that doesn't matter
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
Nothin' really matters
Nothin' really matters at all
