Lyrics
[verse]
Late night, phone's ringing, but I don't recognize the name
Everybody wants a piece but they don't want the pain
I keep a small circle, keep it close and keep it tight
Too many people faking love just for the light
[verse]
They ask me why I'm distant, why I keep the walls up high
It's 'cause I've seen the way they smile then say goodbye
Trust is something earned, not something handed out for free
I move different now, that's just the way it's gotta be
[chorus]
They call me psycho for keeping my guard up high
Psycho for reading the truth behind the lie
I ain't crazy, I just see it all too clear
Psycho 'cause I know exactly why you're here
[verse]
Money changed the room but it never changed my mind
Still checking who's around me, still reading every sign
Not everybody clapping for me wants to see me win
Learned that lesson early, learned it deep within
[chorus]
They call me psycho for keeping my guard up high
Psycho for reading the truth behind the lie
I ain't crazy, I just see it all too clear
Psycho 'cause I know exactly why you're here
[bridge]
Maybe I'm just careful in a world that plays it loose
Maybe I'm just tired of every empty truce
Call it what you want, I call it staying wise
Psycho's just a name for seeing through disguise
[chorus]
They call me psycho for keeping my guard up high
Psycho for reading the truth behind the lie
I ain't crazy, I just see it all too clear
Psycho 'cause I know exactly why you're here
