I Don't Believe You

by @roxya

Liner Notes

As I get older I'm feeling more and more out of touch with my peers not that I can relate to a younger crowd either. Sometimes I feel that as I get more comfortable in my own skin everything around me becomes more alien. It's such a strange emotion, self acceptance, trying to throw away all the pre-conceptions you once had about how your life was going to turn out. How do we embrace both change and sameness at the same time.

Lyrics

I don't believe you

Look at the sky it’s turned to grey
and I’m stuck in the eye, Oh, I’d like to say
That I’m still the same, but I know the truth
Just as well as you and I can already hear you say

I don’t believe you, I can see it in your eyes
I don’t believe you, You’re hiding in your lies
I don’t believe you, Your smile is fake don’t try
I don’t believe you, Why don’t you stop this time

Look at me now, edges all frayed
and like mist in a cloud, bound to dissipate
when the storms abate, Oh I know the truth
Even more than you and I could echo your refrain

I don’t believe you, I can see it in your eyes
I don’t believe you, You’re hiding in your lies
I don’t believe you, Your smile is fake don’t try
I don’t believe you, Why don’t you stop this time

Yeah I’m not the same
can’t say I’m better than I used to be
maybe I haven’t changed
I find those questions they’re still lingering
so I don’t understand
am I still me just living differently?
I never planned
to still believe that I’m the younger me

I don’t believe you, I can see it in your eyes
I don’t believe you, You’re hiding in your lies
I don’t believe you, Your smile is fake don’t try
I don’t believe you, Why don’t you stop this time
I don’t believe you, I can see it in your eyes
I don’t believe you, You’re hiding in your lies
I don’t believe you, Your smile is fake don’t try
I don’t believe you, Why don’t you stop this time

Nice lead into the chorus. I believed you

Liking the verse being pretty picking and the chorus being strumming. The build into the bridge is good.

Song has a nice vibe!
