Irony - Christopher

I’m still smoking 'cause I read somewhere

If I quit before I’m twenty-six

I’ll be fine so I’m lying to myself

While I light another cigarette

I’m addicted to my phone

Getting anxious every time that it’s out of reach

I lie awake, screen right up in my face

And I wonder why I can’t sleep

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

I saw these awful things in a documentary

Decided I would stop eating meat

To save the planet 'til I was like «damn it»

I didn’t even last a week

So pretty perfect on the surface, but the truth is

I don’t wanna be that guy

But I got a script, better stick to it

My label’s telling me I gotta lie

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

And nobody’s perfect under the surface

They’ll never see that side of me

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

I just got a new tattoo, I’m embarrassed

'Cause I didn’t even tell my own mom

So every time I’m home visiting my parents

I always keep my sweater on

I don’t care if it’s the truth or not

All I care about is gettin' likes

Reading the comments like everybody’s honest

While they’re cheering for my fake life

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

And nobody’s perfect under the surface

They’ll never see that side of me

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

'Cause I’m only human after all

Put a filter on and it make it look natural

'Cause I’m only human after all

Put a filter on and it make it look natural

Can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?

And nobody’s perfect under the surface

But everybody’s tryna be

Can’t you see the irony?

Oh, can’t you see the irony?
