Disguise
Rusty Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I make good things nobody notices
Just let the glass drop, fingers are pointed


You Just ignore everything that I do
And you still expect for fairplay you fool

You try to hide inside, but you always bring it outside, you're not that
good
It's so easy to imply, I'm not your alibi
Tired of wasting my time with your disguise


So you are the nice guy again
But you're worth nothing
Not a dime


You just ignore everything that I do
And you still expect for fairplay you fool
You try to hide inside, but you always bring it outside you're not that
good
It's so easy to imply, I'm not your alibi
Tired of wasting my time with your disguise






You try to hide inside, but you always bring it out
Tired of wasting my time with your disguise
