Mom, I lie, I lie
And I lie to myself
Sometimes, I cheat a little
I dive slowly
It hurts you

I shouldn't idealize
Not romanticize our dialogues and our laughter, no
Rather stay realistic
Especially not to get stuck in my dreams that never end
But it's like falling from the sky
You know, every time, I chase them and they come back stronger
It's been 100 times this week
Tonight, I'm still thinking about it
Hey, before the night, you take me in your arms gently
You explain slowly that life is like this
That there is no point in lamenting endlessly
Then you offer me one last dance, hey

Mom, I lie, I lie
And I lie to myself
Sometimes, I cheat a little
I dive slowly
It hurts you
And you deserve better
Mom, I lie, I lie
I lie to myself, hey
I dive slowly
It hurts you

Hey, you shouldn't demonize my dreams and my drifts
All these ladies and their whims, no
And you know it makes me a little sad
This look in your eyes, I promise I'm doing my best
Mom, one day, I'll be a superstar
I'll go out super late, even when it's super dark
And when I've broken my only hope
To find myself a story
Then, I'll come back to see you
Hey, like before, you'll take me in your arms gently
You'll explain slowly that life is like this
That there is no point in lamenting endlessly
And you'll offer me one last dance, hey

Mom, I lie, I lie
And I lie to myself
Sometimes, I cheat a little
I dive slowly
It hurts you
And you deserve better
Mom, I lie, I lie
I lie to myself, hey
I dive slowly
It hurts you

Superstar
Super late
Super dark
