The Nanos - Walking Lie

A Square peg in a square hole
I try to fit in but I just don’t go
I bought myself a self help book
But I couldn’t convince myself to take a look
I don’t know how to be like you
Copy your smile, and buy your shoes
I’m hoping nobody can read my face so
I’m being quiet, being good, being-have
Walking Lie
It’s nice to meet you
Walking Lie
How do you do
I talk to my priest about my life
He’s too concerned with what happens when I die
Talk to my boss; its a waste of time
Hands around my neck tryna fix my tie
And destiny has got a gun to my back
Telling me where to go and how to act
Pretend to blend in never sticking out
The whole wide world is gonna hammer me down
Walking Lie
It’s nice to meet you
Walking Lie
How do you do it
Walking Lie
It’s nice to meet you 
Persona non-grata
A black sheep, I’m a pariah
Minority of one
I’m walking ‘round with a broken thumb
It isn’t easy when you’re living this way
I’m calculating ever step I take
I’ll never get into heaven given the shape of my soul
Yea I’m a square peg in a square hole
Walking Lie
It’s nice to meet you 
Walking Lie
How do you do it
Walking Lie
It’s nice to meet you
I’m a Walking Lie
