[Verse 1]
Right now
There's an ad on every TV in every home
Trying sell you a fix for whatever's wrong
Some potion, some pill, send your dollar bill

[Verse 2]
Right now
There's a drink over ice on a bar in a glass
Every sip will erase your pain, your past
Have another round, but some things are hard to drown

[Chorus]
I'm lost, I'm broke, I'm ugly, I'm old
Got an empty that nothing can fill in my soul
I'm dumb, I'm numb, I'm weird and scared
Not pretty enough to be repaired
Can't win, can't change, all I do is fail
Can't put my crazy back on the shelf
Yeah, the cruelest lies of all the lies we tell
Are the one's we tell ourselves

[Verse 3]
Right now
There's a girl in a Buick parked out of sight
Swears she can't take it, not another night
Wants to close her eyes, maybe see the perfect size

[Chorus]
I'm lost, I'm broke, I'm ugly, I'm old
Got an empty that nothing can fill in my soul
I'm dumb, I'm numb, I'm weird and scared
Not pretty enough to be repaired
Can't win, can't change, all I do is fail
Can't put my crazy back on the shelf
Yeah, the cruelest lies of all the lies we tell
Are the one's we tell ourselves

[Bridge]
Right now there's a couple in a kitchen going through the routine
Of a two story, two kid American dream
They were head over heels now they're coming apart at the seams
Wonder where all the feeling went
Thinkin' that it's time to split
But they ain't ready to quit

[Chorus]
I'm strong, I'm sorry, I'm steady, I'm bold
Got a faith and fire that fills my soul
Yeah, it's okay to struggle, okay to be scared
The busted and broken can be repaired
Can't win, can't change, all I do is fail
Yeah, that's what I used to tell myself
'Cause the cruelest lies of all the lies we tell
Yeah, the cruelest lies of all the lies we tell
Are the ones we tell ourselves
The ones we tell ourselves
