Flawed Design by Stabilo
Flawed Design lyrics
When I was a young boy, I was honest
And I had more self control
If I was tempted I would run
Then when I got older
I began to lie to get exactly
What I wanted, when I wanted it
And I wanted it
Now, I'm having trouble
Differentiating between
What I want and what I need
To make me happy
So instead of thinking, I just act
Before I have a chance to contemplate
The consequence of action
And I will turn off and I will shut down
Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground
And I will turn off and I will shut down
The chemicals are restless in my head
'Cause I lie, not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time
Yeah, I lie and I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my flawed design
And ever since I figured out
That I could control other people
I've had trouble sleeping
With both eyes closed
And if I asked permission
If I make sure it's okay
I promise I won't slip up this time
You can trust me
But never take advice from someone
Who just admitted to being devious
Who just confessed to treason
And I would also never ask a question
That I cannot ask myself
For it might dirty up your conscience
'Cause I lie, not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time
Yeah, I lie and I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my
And how can you say those things
Why can't you just believe
And how can you say those things
And keep a straight face
And how can you say those things
Why can't we just believe
And how can you say those things
And keep a straight face
And I will turn off and I will shut down
Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground
And I will turn off and I will shut down
The chemicals are restless in my head
'Cause I lie, not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time
Yeah, I lie and I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my
'Cause I lie and if I could control it
Maybe I could leave it all behind
Yeah, I lie and I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my flawed design
