The Academy Is...: Skeptics And True Believers

Don't be so scared, we will not lead
You on like you've been doing for weeks
So you're selfish, and I'm sorry
When I'm gone you'll be going nowhere fast
Nowhere fast, nowhere fast

Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
'Cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me, and
Near death, last breath, and barely hanging on
Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?

Don't be so scared to take a second for reflection
To take a leave of absence, see what you're made of
So I'm selfish and you're sorry?
When I'm gone you'll be going nowhere fast
So who's selfish, and who's sorry?

Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
'Cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me, and
Near death, last breath, and barely hanging on
Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?

Someone, somewhere said some things
That may have sparked some sympathy
But don't believe
Don't believe a word you've heard about me

Don't be so scared, it's harder for me
Don't be so scared
Don't be so scared, it's harder for me
Don't be so scared, it's harder for me
Don't be so scared, it's harder for me
Don't be so scared

Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
'Cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me, and
Near death, last breath, and barely hanging on
Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?

Someone, somewhere said some things
That may have sparked some sympathy
But don't believe
Don't believe a word you've heard

Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
'Cause I wouldn't believe you, wouldn't believe you now
Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?
'Cause I wouldn't believe you, wouldn't believe you now
