1.	Foolish Pride 02:51	lyrics	buy track
Cry out When you've abandoned love Crawl out of that hole To where you can barely see Just how embarrassing Watching the rise and fall From my TV guide Nothing else matters But my Foolish Pride And I tried and I tried So many times But I keep Looking on Like it's not enough Foolish pride I invite to dine When you're about to lose With no one in sight Still you can barely see Despite the alien inside Stuck in this fallacy And I tried and I tried So many times But I keep Looking on Like it's 1981 Foolish pride I must Survive Foolish Pride Foolish Pride Foolish Pride Foolish Pride
2.	Big Lie 02:51	lyrics	buy track
Where do I belong? Out of wonder Torn asunder Another double cross Always running off with all that money When I thought I'd blown cover I had no idea it was all a lie Facing all my fear to make it past the same mistakes When do you think you'll make it out of the Big Lie? Big Lie Big Lie
