As Is lyrics

you can`t hide
behind social graces
so don`t try
to be all touchy feely
cuz you lie
in my face of all places
but i`ve got no
problem with that really

what bugs me
is that you believe what you`re saying
what bothers me
is that you don`t know how you feel
what scares me
is that while you`re telling me stories
you actually
believe that they are real

and i`ve got
no illusions about you
and guess what?
i never did
and when i said
when i said i`ll take it
i meant,
i meant as is

just give up
and admit you`re an asshole
you would be
in some good company
i think you`d find
that you friends would forgive you
or maybe i
am just speaking for me

cuz when i look around
i think this, this is good enough
and i try to laugh
at whatever life brings
cuz when i look down
i just miss all the good stuff
when i look up
i just trip over things

and i`ve got
no illusions about you...

you can`t hide
behind social graces
cuz i don`t buy it
like everyone else
and you can lie
in my face of all places
just don`t
lie to yourself

cuz i`ve got
no illusions about you
and guess what?
i never did
and when i say
when i say i`ll take it
i mean,
i mean as is...

...as is...
