Calling someone “translucent” to me is when someone isn’t actually lying to you, but they only tell you half-truths. You ever know someone like that?

I think I’m only going to do improv this FAWM, it’s good practice :D

Patently false And pleasantly lying Could you just tell me that You’ve been trying ‘Cause it feels like I’ve been doing the brunt of the work here

Communication has never been your situation You turn the station to other things Is it lying if distraction works, patently?

‘Cause I don’t remember the last time you told me what you were thinking, yeah I can’t remember the last time you were transparent You’re translucent at best Would you stop putting me through so many tests? Just tell me what you’re thinking, you don’t have to lie to me

‘Cause you’re pleasantly— Your pleasant falsehoods might seem like they’re more kind than the truth But eventually the shit you’re piling will start to fall loose ‘Cause you keep it up, you can’t keep it in Even if you convince yourself that it’s true I know that you are just hiding who you really are

Could you tell me how you feel inside? There’s no reason to hide I know it’s so hard to, to be transparent But the way that you’re hiding everything Makes me wonder if you even know what’s reality

Could you tell me how you really feel Could you tell me what you’re really thinking Could you tell me how you really feel Could you be transparent, be translucent?

Could you tell me how you really feel Could you tell me what you’re really thinking Could you live in reality Instead of all this pleasant fiction?
