Truth is

Um daginn gat ég ekki sofið því ég var að hugsa um allt það sem mig langaði að öskra á fyrrverandi. Í staðinn skrifaði ég ógeðslega petty ljóð sem ég breytti svo í lag, og ég held að þetta sé besta lag sem ég samið hingað til, allavega mitt uppáhalds. Það heyrist augljóslega ekki en það er mjög upbeat. "Truth is"línan var líka innblásin af Instagram reel sem vinkona mín sendi á groupchattið um daginn...takk Maria.


Þetta lag er svolítið persónulegt samt svo ég gæti tekið það niður eftir einhvern tíma, ég sé hvernig mér líður.



D G Em A7 x2

 

    D

Supposed to be missing you 

G

Instead I’m just wishing to 

Em           A7

Tell you all the things I really think of you

        D       G

And I always stay awake at night

         Em             A7

And I start to think that it’s my right


    D

To stab you with the same blunt knife

         G

Can’t believe I ever cared about

Em

Some boy who in the end was 

A7

Not the slightest man I thought

D

Truth is, they will always hurt

      G         Em

Every time, when worse comes to worst

      A7                   D     

But hey, at least I got to steal his shirt


G Em A7


                  Bm   G

And when I really start to think down on myself

Em

That I’m lazy or dumb

A7

Or I’m less than my sum

Bm   G

I remember you’re like 10 steps behind

Em A7

You just convince yourself to give you some peace of mind


D           G

Seriously, the world isn’t against you

       Em     A7

The world does not even know who you are

Bm              G

But I kind of hate that I have to 

Em         A7

23 and you can’t even drive a car??


D               Bm

Too lazy to make some decision

        G         Em     A7

‘Bout your future or goals, and you always looked to 

Bm         D

Your friends who would be fine without you

G           Em        A7  D

Then cursed the government and the universe


G Em A7

D G Em A7


D

You didn’t make me laugh

        G Em

Your prepubescent humour is so sad

    A7

The guy I met never existed at all

D         G       Em

No, of course i didn’t watch The Simpsons through

           A7     D

I’m not some old ass middle aged dude


Bm F#m G A


Bm   F#m

Certainly didn’t spare a passing thought

    G

When you threw your insults at my face

A

     In my car, in my space

Bm      F#m

And when you went upstairs it felt like a taunt

G

     We were outside your place, but you

A         D

     Had to make me sit and wait 

            G

On the front steps

       Em

I don’t forgive or forget

 A

And you would know that 


D     G

After that you still want to be friends

        Em         A7

‘Cause you don’t hate me and you wish me the best

D           G     Em

Don’t you think those words and those actions clash?

  A7             D

Did you pull the audacity out of your ass?


D G Em A7


D           G

Leave your name out when I mention you to my new friends

Em A7

‘Cause im honestly ashamed that it went on for so long

D                   G                           Em

     I do it because one day I hope to wash my hands

            A7         D

And if we see you out, they won’t see anything wrong


G Em A7 D

Ég er komin með löngunina aftur til þess að fara í bæinn  og eyða öllum peningnum mínum í ný föt.  Mig langar að kaupa prjónaðar peysur í hlýjum litum sem segja:  ,,Ég er klár, þú getur treyst mér.”

I used to write more poetry when I was younger but now I mostly write songs instead. Don't let me fool you into thinking that I am any...
