Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't need nothin'
And I know that you won't even try
Don't wait for me to help you
Too late for any of my advice

No trust
All I got is lies
Boring
Alright

Misplaced your values
Forgot the importance of being right
Don't sit there and act humble
I've heard your story a thousand times

No trust
All I got is lies




Boring
Alright
