LYRICS:
You could be a lawyer, you could be a doctor
You could get the dinner with the extra pound of lobster
You could make the music, you could be a painter
You're a precious snowflake with your picture in the paper
The little lies you're told, it seems like they don't love you anymore
Yeah, they're right outside your door, it's come to an end
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
You could be an athlete, you could drive a sports car
You deserve the things you want, just put 'em on your points card
You could be important, you could make a difference
You deserve the finer things, you're supposed to be famous
The little lies you're told, it seems like they don't love you anymore
Yeah, they're right outside your door, it's come to an end
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
(Don't tell me that, just keep 'em away)
The little lies you're told (they're creepin' up)
It seems like they don't love you anymore (they're creepin' up)
Yeah, they're right outside your door (they're creepin' up)
It's come to an end
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
Those are lies that they told you, they don't pay the rent
Those are lies that they told you, they don't pay the rent
Those are lies that they told you, they don't pay the rent
Those are lies that they told you, they don't pay the rent
The little lies you're told, it seems like they don't love you anymore
Yeah, they're right outside your door, it's come to an end
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
(Don't tell me that, just keep 'em away)
The little lies you're told (they're creepin' up)
It seems like they don't love you anymore (they're creepin' up)
Yeah, they're right outside your door (they're creepin' up)
It's come to an end
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)
(Don't tell me that, don't tell me that)

This song is definitively some beautifully, brutally honest shit once you graduate High School. It's not the most brutal and I don't think it's worth becoming cynical over, but uh... this speaks volumes to me personally. I hope everyone out there listening to this who feels the same finds a way to combat the feeling.

[@parkerandrews5512]

memes are the answer

[@jessicaw9011]

In all seriousness? For me its God. There is a supernatural side and a natural side to this life. I understand I have a choice every day, every time this feeling comes upon me, to only live in and see the mundane and the banal, or I can choose to see the wonder in the world, and live for the light instead of the dark.

[@GalinaEv]

So how is life treating you?

[@joshuaskousen9864]

Well, how's it treating you?@@GalinaEv

[@GalinaEv]

@@joshuaskousen9864 hmm it's very uneven lol. funny enough I've been singing this song all day today. sooo do you enjoy the song and have strong feelings still?

[@laynam5859]

I've never been more frustrated that I can't listen to multiple songs at once lmao

[@idontkno8528]

Layna Muraski ohhh big mood

[@lookbehindyou7906]

REMIX MULTIPLE SONGS TOGETHOR

[@laynam5859]

Five years later I do now own two pairs of headphones so maybe I can give it a try lol

[@colinevans7796]

where would I be without this album.

[@madrabbit1494]

Colin Evans same

[@timbea2571]

You would be listening to one of their older albums, maybe.

[@KevinHolik]

that beat tho

[@jessicaw9011]

Is it weird that I hear a runway song?

[@Rocdan100]

Anyone else find this oddly inspiring? Like I want to work hard and turn the lies to truths!

[@stickystick1048]

Maybe it is because it is hard for you to see the truth. I dont find this song uninspiring. Like this is exactly the kind of argument liberal right always has when you want to apply some systematic help for the less fortunate. Their logic is that people are poor because they did not worked enough. They always miss the fact that fortune is influenced by lots of other factors like luck, background and so on. Thats why its lies. Everything you do is influenced not just by you only but also by loads of other staff happening around. And there are so many of them you might not even see it. ;)

[@revui834]

i feel like you missed the point of the song a bit. in the united states of america, we're all given the idea that hard work = success, and that is exactly the core of all the lies this song is about. the truth is that most people aren't going to achieve amazing levels of success. most people aren't going to be famous or get everything they expected, no matter how hard they try. but it's not their fault. they didn't fail, they just believed. i'm not trying to be mean, and i know your comment is quite old, so you might already understand this by now; for most people, the lies will never be anything but. and that's okay.

[@cupoftea3499]

​@@revui834The only way to succeed is to be mediocre. If you are an excellent worker then managers will not promote you, because you have much more value at the position you are in than being promoted to a position you won't fully understand.

[@leahblackwell3585]

These guys are magical! I’ve yet to listen to a song I dislike by them. Even better live!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@hoaxesit4593]

Wow this is very powerful to me as a kid you are told all these wonderful things but when you get older you have to accept the fact that they are not real they have been lies you cant be anything you want to be its not your choice it feels like your not a snowflake you are told to be diffrent and then all of a sudden you are told to be like everybody else.

[@evandemuynck3063]

I like the sound of this a lot, the middle part is different but it might grow on me. I think I get what he's talking about and the middle part sorta makes sense taking the meaning into consideration. I was so psyched for this album though

[@xxMONiiQUE]

saw these guys live they are awesome!!

[@TsavosAlliance]

My favorite track from Joywave!

[@trashdotcom753]

I just discovered these guys through an ad and I'm satisfied. They remind me of a modern Weezer

[@Ozzymandias493]

They're definitely not comparable to most bands, just listen to their first album it's a marvel on its own.

[@Ready2FreakingPlow]

I would compare them more to early Radiohead with Rivers Cuomo Vox

[@jessicaw9011]

what ad? out of curiosity

[@alext5390]

@@jessicaw9011 probably half your age

[@mychemicalromancewillpierc5241]

toast_boah half your age is recent. This is from two years ago.

[@jessicaw9011]

I discovered you guys on Spotify, and then I went to a 30 Seconds to Mars concert in Michigan last year where you were the very first opening band. I liked the music, and the name of the band sounded vaugely familiar, but i didn't recognize it until I heard Compromise, and I was like-- "Wait-- I KNOW THIS BAND! OH MY GOD THIS IS ONE OF MY JAMS AND I GET TO HEAR IT LIVE NOW?" That was a beautiful moment, and I could not stay in my seat for most of the rest of that night. I still remember dancing down the stairs to find our seats while you were playing Destruction. It was so perfect. The only thing that wasn't awesome about that show was there was no merch table for you or any of the other opening bands, and I was sad. Come back to Michigan soon!

[@johnvaldez8830]

Wow! Refreshing artists at their best...let the joywave ride...

[@a.miller1806]

I just heard you guys on 96.5 the Buzz, and I am so excited to listen to the album.

[@atsilabrown811]

Annabelle M. They're on the radio? That's awesome

[@ZoeAlexa11]

Noir Vide-Rook yes! I hear them on my local alt rock station 97x

[@jessicaw9011]

THEY GOT RADIO PLAY?! WHAT?! *high fives every single member of the band* HECK YEAH!

[@Chryssy512ATX]

No truer words have ever been sung so beautifully!!!

[@JacksonFromRadix]

Might just be my favorite

[@karssy654]

I love the beat its hella nice!

[@andreeacristea3111]

joywaeve is so cool and i love his music

[@jessicaw9011]

Although I will say this much-- it is a bit ironic that songs like this are given to us by rock stars

[@spaceman2289]

i see them more like artists but ok

[@JcGross93]

Yeah, Joywave, the definition of "rock stars"... Gtfo

[@TacticalTerry]

Yeah the big bands always sell the anthems to the young trying to change things.

[@maximum2278]

straight banger

[@agnesblansh3839]

Wanna make Eva amv with this song in it. I think this song is perfect for Evangelion

[@laynam5859]

Y'all

[@fakegmale4648]

Big data influence?

[@joshuaskousen9864]

They've done collaborative work with Big Data. (Tongues) So, yes and no. It's more like Joywave shares genre/sound with Big Data and vice versa. Hopefully this answers your question.

[@dagmar570]

Fake Gmale Joywave their singer used to be in big data if I'm correct, and they've collaborated before, so I guess it's more kind of sharing a genre if you ask me.

[@JewishFatherzzzz]

and “Dangerous” do not forget that awesome song.

[@dankerine]

1.25 speed, your welcome

[@aeidla]

this song is a bop too bad it’s so Edgy™️

[@airyangelic852]

👌

[@kcunlimitedeats]

I don't understand the bridge in the song with the freestyle ranting.

[@user-vi4xy1jw7e]

Why don't you understand?

[@kcunlimitedeats]

The song really didn't need that thrown in. I know some bands from the past have done that, and it is a way to get the lyrics re-enforced in your head. However, the song is adequately pissy. I am a great lover of angsty music, and this song is very beautiful. Much of their music has that passion which I love. Their songs are almost painful lyrically.

[@lookbehindyou7906]

I agree

[@jayg1438]

perhaps the truth doesn't always fit in a neat little box?

[@lemonhscott7667]

I actually don't like this one...
