Perplexed Lyrics by Boy Bleach

or are you normal?

2021

[Verse 1]
I've been struggling to get my breaths in
I've been trying too hard to find an exit
I've been making bad decisions that don't affect me
And I've been intent on bad intentions that don't reflect me

[Verse 2]
I've been working too fucking hard to be better, but I can't help it
I've been away for way too long and I'll admit that I'm embarrassed
But I collapse into myself when I can't cope with all the bad shit
And I've been tryna be a man, but I don't even know what that means

[Chorus]
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm a liar
But it's all for you
Pariahs make good liars
But we're triers
The more you say, the morе I'm likely to ignore you

[Verse 3]
He's been struggling to еat his breakfast
She's got stones in her lungs and they're getting heavy
They're seventeen, but they're dealing with all these stresses
They can't believe we've been looking for ways to end it

[Verse 4]
I've been entertaining my demons and they love the shows I play them
All I need is for someone I can escape with
All I want is for somebody who can change me
All I ask is that you listen and be patient
They don't read into the issues that we're facing
They're not satisfied with things that might perplex them
They play God, but in that case my faith is empty
I hope they won't hold that against me while

[Chorus]
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm a liar
But it's all for you
Pariahs make good liars
But we're triers
The more you say, the more I'm likely to ignore you

[Bridge]
I'm no good, bad luck has had a great run on me
Pull me out please
I don't know what you want from me
I want you to believe that I'm tryin'

[Chorus]
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm a liar
But it's all for you
Pariahs make good liars
But we're triers
The more you say, the more I'm likely to ignore you

[Outro]
I need somebody who can change me (I'm on fire)
I need somebody who can change me (I'm on fire)
(I'm on fire)
But it's all for you (Make me feel so wrong)
Pariahs make good liars
But we're triers
The more you say, the more I'm likely to ignore you
