Lyric discussion by past_past_present 

i think this is about taking advantage of something and trying to convince yourself that what you did was ok, when really you know that what you tell yourself.. it's just.. it's just a story you tell yourself to feel better and you know that when it comes down to it you did what they say you did and you try to tell yourself anything to forget it

it almost seems as if the lyrics say that he's trying to play not knowing any better. if that was intended or of thats the truth is unclear. he seems lost in this.

"I am the first one I deceive if I can make myself believe the rest is easy."

maybe all he's saying is that he has to get over his conscience and as long as he can tell himself that he didn't do anything wrong then he will be ok.

i really love bright eyes haha
