Awhile Lyrics by Oliver Stay

If I’m Being Honest

2018

[VERSE]
I’m the butt of the joke
But I’m not laughing anymore
You’re not funny, You’re not funny
And your punchline sucks
Like I would sit here and choke on stage
My name won’t stay inside the words you say anymore
And I’m thinking
But the words never come out right
[Chorus]
You mean the world to me
But I don’t mean a thing to you
And I’ve been this way for awhile by now
The story’s said and done
And I’m regretting myself for once
I’ve spent this year in denial somehow
I want to figure it out
[VERSE 2]
Metaphor I am nevermore
I’ve got my tongue in my cheek
I’m trying to settle the score
I’m prepared for whatever you give me
Even if it’s nothing
Nothing nothing, nothing nothing
I’m sure I get a little repetitive
I’m sure that I exhaust the words
Can somebody give this circle a sedative
Before I put myself in the dirt
[Chorus]
You mean the world to me
But I don’t mean a thing to you
And I’ve been this way for awhile by now
The story’s said and done
And I’m regretting myself for once
I’ve spent this year in denial somehow
I want to figure it out
[Chorus]
You mean the world to me
But I don’t mean a thing to you
And I’ve been this way for awhile by now
The story’s said and done
And I hope that I’ll move on
I’ve spent so long in denial but now
I’m gonna figure it out
