[Verse 1]

I'm not asking for that much

I only want the truth

When you tell me how you feel

I'm not gonna play the games

That make you feel like shit

I'm not asking for the world


[Verse 2]

How many times must we tell each other lies?

And separate our lives

And wonder what went wrong

I'm not asking for that much

Just open honesty

I'm not asking for the world


[Bridge]

When we're young, it's only fun

It's just the chances that you take

Now we're grown up and we're fucked up

And we make the same mistakes

We keep repeating the same beating

Like it's not a choice to make

And then we're lying and denying

What we won't refuse to change

I feel like I've been through so much shit


[Guitar Solo]


[Verse 3]

I feel like I've been through so much shit

So many dysfunctional relationships

That I don't know

What to feel anymore

I'm not asking for that much

Just be real with me

I'm not asking for the world

I'm not asking for that much

Just be real with me

I'm not asking for the world
