I remember the time when I was a little child
My father wouldnæ?° call or visit
He denied the fact that I even existed
He canæ?° deny the fact that Iæ?¦ grown up strong and artistic
You canæ?° deny the fact that some of us are born different

You canæ?° deny the fact that your life can be gone in an instant
You canæ?° deny that fact that your wife left you
You canæ?° deny that fact somebodyæ?¯ out to get you
Iæ?³e seen so many things, so many times, so many people
So many lies, so many ways to deny
The fact that you love, the fact that you hate
The fact that you try to escape problems
The fact that you got 榹m
Iæ?¦ willing to lose, Iæ?¦ willing to bet
Iæ?¦ willing to try and die for respect
But if I have to
Iæ?£l break it down for you and spell it out like a child
It seems everybodyæ?¯ in denial

[Chorus]
You canæ?° deny
You canæ?° deny
You canæ?° deny what the truth is
Truth is
You canæ?° hold on to what you donæ?° know
So, let, let, it, it, go
You canæ?° deny
You canæ?° deny
You canæ?° deny what the truth is
Truth is
You canæ?° hold on to what you donæ?° know
So, let, let, it, it, go

You canæ?° deny the fact that your past haunts you
You canæ?° deny the fact that your girlfriend doesnæ?° want you
You canæ?° deny the fact that your lifeæ?¯ been shifted
You canæ?° deny the fact that Iæ?¦ god gifted
You canæ?° deny the fact that everyoneæ?¯ against you
You canæ?° deny the fact that your mortgage and rent is due
You canæ?° deny that fact that youæ?®e falling apart slowly
You canæ?° deny youæ?®e depressed, stressed and lonely
If only you can see what I see, youæ?? feel the same
Denialæ?¯ a game it only takes one to play
Youæ?®e lying, denying and everything seems strange
You canæ?° deny the fact that things change
For those who came to play the game
For those who called my name, for those who feel pain
I tried to live, I tried to die, I tried to stand strong, Iæ?³e tried to cry
Now somehow someway I plan to stay, I plan to play
I look to pray, my feelings wonæ?° go away
You canæ?° handle the truth when youæ?®e acting like a child
Youæ?®e still lost in denial

[Chorus]

You borrow the keys to your girlfriends ride
You find another manæ?¯ ring on the passengers?side
You thought you kept her happy with the money you spent
You see them holding hands and you still think theyæ?®e friends
So sick of these bands that demand respect
You can count on one hand all the
