lyrics

We’ve known friends
Were not friends
Perhaps the deepest wounds
Came from them

Their loyalty
Much like the
Emporers new clothes
Fake
Self-righteous

Posers
Posers

I cried like nobody was watching
Like nobody was hiding
Beyond the light
And i died
long enough to realise
i tried
long enough to realise
i was stronger
than all their lies

Liars
Liars

And i dont care
For their kind-ness
Their entitled state of mind-less
Betrayal cuts
As they pathologise
mmmm
mmmm

Posers (no thank you, we good)
Posers (we just arrived)
Posers (no thank you, we good)
Posers (mmmm, ha)

I cried like nobody was watching
Like nobody was hiding
Behind the light
And I died
long enough to realise
I was stronger than the pantomime

Posers (no thank you, we good)
Posers (we just arrived)
Posers (no thank you, we good)
Posers

We’ve known friends
Were not friends
Perhaps the deepest wounds
Came from them
