Lyrics: Comforting Lie – No Doubt
Album: Rock Against Bush, Vol. 2
Artist: Various Artists
 

I started out on the wrong foot, now I’m not myself
I am Jekyll, I am Hyde, found this place to hide, come seek me
Oh, so up and down, so back and forth, so insecure
Can’t get this taste out of my mouth, swallow it down, pretend

And hold it, hold it all in
Let it build up, oh, build a bomb
And blow it, blow it away
And clear it all out, just end it

I’m just a normal person without those problems, when did it change?
Admission so embarrassing, I’m on the verge of tears again

I’ll hold it, I’ll hold it all in
I’ll let it build up, oh, build a bomb
And blow it, blow it away
And clear it all out, just end it

Oh look, I took the band aid off. did I take it off too soon
Hysterical confession, my big courage is blue

Don’t gasp at the predictable, a comforting lie can’t last
Preordained checklist of this awkward love it’s so sad

Oh, hold it, hold it all in
Let it build up, oh, build a bomb
And blow it, blow it away
And clear it all out, just end it
And sort it, sort it out
Oh, just give it back, no thank you
And toss it, toss it away
Eliminate, just give up

I, I can’t decide this tug of war
I’m feeling weak, yeah
