If I'm talkin' loud And keep choking on laughs Or saying I'm great When nobody asked If I slap your back And say, "Isn't life sweet?" And get 'em all laughing And looking at me Well, I'm lyin' I'm dyin' a little inside I'm barely survivin' I bet you thought I wasn't tryin' I'm lyin' Yeah Pull up a seat To the one-man show Of someone who's good At letting it go What puts me on stages Is what tears me apart I'm good in the spotlight But when it goes dark I'm lyin' I'm dyin' a little inside I'm barely survivin' I bet you thought I wasn't tryin' I'm lyin' Life of the party Drink beers with the guys How can someone so big Be so little inside? I'm lyin' Oh, I'm dyin' a little inside I'm barely survivin' Lyin' I'm dyin' a little inside I'm barely survivin' I bet you thought I wasn't tryin' I'm lyin' I'm lyin'
