Stabilo - Flawed Design Lyrics
When I was a young boy
I was honest and I had more self control
If I was tempted I would
Run
Then when I got older I began to lie to get exactly what I wanted when I wanted it
Now I'm having trouble differentiating between what I want and what I need to make me
Happy
So instead of thinking I just act before I have a chance to contemplate the consequence of
Action
And I will turn off
And I will shut down
Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground
And I will turn off
And I will shut down
Cause I lie
Not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time (need to all the time)
Yeah I lie
And I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my
Flawed design
And ever since I figured out that I could control other people
I've had trouble sleeping with both
Eyes closed
And if I ask permission if I make sure it's ok I promise I won't slip up this time you can
Trust me
But never take advice from someone who just admitted to being devious and just confessed to
Treason
And I would also never ask a question that I cannot ask myself for it might dirty up your
Conscience
Cause I lie
Not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time (need to all the time)
Yeah I lie
And I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my (flawed design)
And how can you say those things why can't you just believe
And how can you say those things and keep a straight face
And how can you say those things why can't we just believe
And how can you say those things and keep a straight face
And I will turn off
And I will shut down
Burying the voices of my conscience hitting ground
And I will turn off
And I will shut down
The chemicals are restless in my head
Cause I lie
Not because I want to
But I seem to need to all the time (need to all the time)
Yeah I lie
And I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my (flawed design)
Cause I lie
And if I could control it
Maybe I could leave it all behind (leave it all behind)
Yeah I lie
And I don't even know it
Maybe this is all a part of my
Flawed design

Stabilo Flawed Design Comments
I love this song
HOLY FUCK I FIND THIS SONG IT WAS BURIED IN THE BACK OF HEAD SINCE I WAS 10 IM FUCKING 17 NOW ALSO I DIDNT REMEMBER THE CLIP BECAUSE I ONLY LOOKED TO AN LPS VERSION OF IT
Found this song when looking for saint asonias song with the same title. Not bad.
reminds me of our lady peace
This guy have more awesome songs like "Everybody". Listen to those
this song has been evading me for more than 5 years and i finally found it!!!!!!!
Amazing song. Powerful lyrics. It means different things to different people. It is about someone being in the grips of drug addiction. The Chemicals are restless in my head.
Surprising this guy would become the lead for a documentary on a paper sales company.
Heard this song when I was young on the radio. I still come back to it every now and then.
I love this band!
Where's my 2019 squad at
shoutout to muchmusic playing this song one morning before school, song slaps
I don't even know how I got here but I'm glad I did
Eight years of searching and I find this song by total fluke. Thank you random twitter post.
good bad super
rare song where verses are catchier than chorus!
One of my favourite Canadian hits back in 2006. Listened to KissFM online before.
canadian classic
2019 anyone?
1.25x sounds kinda like the remix cover
I met the curly hair guy today at school he said the band stopped cus the singer lost his voice
Shit what a great song......great voice,barely hear it on the radio anymore....Sucks!!
Apparently he wanted lamps
2019 anyone?
really dope song
Took me 5 years to remebeer this song by typing lyics in google lol damn #OldMuchMusic
This song is so underrated it’s unfortunate because I actually love this song so good 😊 💖
This is an amazing ringtone. Great song growing up, and overly played on the radio in Canada. Listening to this song in Pattaya after a night alone reminded me of how much I can relate to these lyrics; even though we're often tempted to succumb to our emotions, we must not lie to ourselves to have fake experiences. Confess to doing something devious or to committing treason early, and stop lying to yourself. I have Stabilo to thank 8 years later
So underrrated.
Loved this guy! Wish he'd kept going.
under a million views smh the amount of people misssin out
Honestly.... it kinda shows how bad the world real is. A beauty like this talking about flaws is ignored.
Man, I'm so glad to finally hear this song again. I remember being a teenager and loving this song.
I miss this band so much!! They have such beautiful voices and music. I hope they get back together because they deserve to be huge because they have so much great talent. Love their music!! <3
Still *LOVE* this song 10+ years later. Wish they didn't break up.
Stop making music and take 1 million each. This is the reason for the breakup (amount of money undisclosed)
This is how our satanic rulers work.
perfect song for Loki ;--;
Ahead of it's time.
Not truly ahead of its time, more so an ACTUAL song that most artists dont make. The world is going sour and this artist was being real.
Love the song
Took me for ever to figure out the name of this song.
"Cause I lie, not because I want to but I seem to need to all the time." So relatable..
Im glad you feel that way. I just heard this song and cried because of that. No one WANTS to lie, we instinctively and badly do it.
This song - 500K views in 10 years
It’s everyday bro - 100 mill views
What’s wrong with this world ?
Were going full trash bro.... Hope God ends all this sooner than later.
I came here from Johnny's Flawed Design (thepopcornfairy)
I remember recording this from the radio on tape good old days
When I was younger this song played all the time on the radio
Apparently this single has topped various Canadian charts, although details are unknown. Being Canadian I only knew a dance mix appearing on one local station at the time, surfaces
at times nowadays. Stabilo is, basically, unknown.
Its because our evil rulers shut them down. This song is too real. You cant have things like this wake up souls.
This song would constantly be on the radio when it came out so don't say it's underrated
where r u...get it 2gether for ur fans....
Such a perfect song ❤
Was this version of the song a hit or was the remix?
EPIC!!!
I realized a different meaning to the song... it's talking about how society requires you lie, and the singer can't really understand why he feels like he's something else but he keeps on telling these lies instead. He doesn't want to lie, but he always does and he doesn't even know exactly why. When he says 'it's all a part of my flawed design', he might be literally talking about how he used to be so honest when he was young and now he feels so conflicted, but also maybe he's talking about how he hates how he just goes along with society like that. So the flawed design isn't him, but really society.
good point, i have just a slight comment. I think sociecty don't require you to lie, but it rewards liers. In that sense, humans are flawed in that we seek rewards just for rewards sake.
^ Bythespirits - Youve refined Voldy's opinion well. I have emotional connection to this song growing up for as I grew and what i did and how i know God, but when it comes to the factual meaning of the song i think youve solved the mystery in tandem.
@ByTheSPiRiTs I don't think society just rewards liers, but at the very least a large segment of society will hate you if you tell the truth and I think will do whatever it takes to stop being a truth teller.
I don't mean to and I certainly don't want to turn this into a left vs right thing, but I do know that from my perspective Donald Trump tells it as it is and the establishment hates him for it. They hate him because the truth exposes the corrupt. Ten years ago the left knew this just as well as the right if not better. Cleaning up Washington was a big part of Obama's 2008 campaign and getting big money out of Washington was central to Bernie Sanders campaign as well. So I truly believe both the left and the right truly want this.
What I ultimately want is to bring the left and right together because from my perspective we have much that we agree on and if we come together we can find a way to work through even that which we disagree on.
The song is basically just a peer into the mind of a narcissist.
Wow this song is phenomenal.. I'm officially addicted to it. The extended club remix is where I searched this song and found two versions. Both are so good but this one hits hard. Absolutely love it. I wish this band was still together :(
Still Love it....Always..
Song of the day 08/02/2017: in the coming back for these songs, these morsels of bygone sentiments, there must be a part of it that feels like coming back for the boy; the humonculous shrill of a boy believing too much of what he heard on the radio.
Thank you cecelia from the requestlyrics forum lol.
254 holy sh*t its the cort of owles from batman.
OMG IN LOOOOOVVVVEEEE!! WAS SEARCHING FOR THIS SONG FOR SOOOO MANY YEARS!
Jessiee Houle I know the feeling there's so many songs I've lost and only know like a guitar part and finding it is like meeting a old friend again its relieving but there's still so many songs lost in my mind without name from time
Jessiee Houle 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I have been needing to find this song out for years. literally day in and out it would drive me crazy. My friend played this saying it was her favorite song and i lost my absolute shit
i was 10 years old when this came and now i am 20 years old time flew buy
searched for the name of the band and song name since u was 7 im now 16 and have found it thanks ms gordon (my english teacher)
i was 10 years old when i watched the video on m3(it was called much more music at the time) when it existed
❥ ♡
I feel I can relate the lyrics to when I was in active addiction
ya, i remember hearing it when i was in rehab and it struck some chords. addicts lie
funny for me how i found this song was while reading a fanfic and the author put the lyrics in the story..haha 😅
what is the name of the book?
Alfomar Dotillos Same lol
Pro-tip: If this is your friend's favorite song, don't trust that friend.
Nimna Mendis you, you ;)
i say to my friend that i love this song, so don't expect i could be trusted
i see them in total confusion
4 years ago I found this song for the first and I'm found it again! yay! I totally forgot about if but i still love it
Omg I forgot about this song for like 4 years, what's wrong with me
I was in junior high school when I heard this , not fully appreciating its significance, now I'm 22 and it has rocked me to my core , I have become what I fear the most..I've become a man with a flawed design..
I was 10 when this song came out... Time flys
Omg this song is so beautiful... He makes me think of Loki Laufeyson. Sorry for my English I am French . But I think you understand me xD And I don't want to use Google or other site on the Web for translations .
your english is quite good
always liked these guys
This song doesn't even have 1 M views, wtf!
Thank god I found this song again..
I know. This song is so cleverly written, I hate all this bullshitty common music. I love songs like this :)
Is this song about consent?
The guitar player with long curly hair (Chris) use to be my teacher and I never knew who he was until he showed me this song and I fell in love with his songs since then and now I play the guitar.
You go to surrey Christian school then I met h today
Faith Do FAITH ITS RAE AND SAME
My life
I lied 😏
+SabyToes Liiiiiiiiiiies why :(
"Ever since I figured out that I could control other people I've had trouble sleeping with both eyes closed". Such powerful lyrics
Most underrated and under viewed song I've ever heard
qazwsxedcrfv379 the video sure, but back in the day this song got millions of “views” via CD players and MP3 players lol
maybe people hear it back then in TV back then and feels critiqued so they don't want to hear it again
you know, human are flawed design
I heard this song when I was about 10-11 then I never heard it till now. Idk why but im almost crying. Its such a beautiful song.
First time I heard this song, I was in 6th grade... I searched it for a year before I gave up on it and I just found it!!! I'm on my sophomore year at college. I'm really happy!!!!
does anybody know if stablio is Canadian
+Jean-René Losier can confirm, my uncle on drums
Yea bc bands woop woop just need a band from enderby now

This is my theme song
This song relates to me like no other song. I love it.
Tao Jones T.jones
I think you're lying ;)
Great tune!
I call this "Ode to a Highlighter Thief"
Ode to stealing my stuff :D
They named their band after a highlighter marker. I'm serious.
The only good thing to ever come out of Maple Ridge.
did anyone notice a giant pair of scissors in this video
This reminds me of Tony DiNozzo on NCIS...
When I first heard this song, I thought R. Kelly was singing.. lol
I wanna know where I can hear the remix to this song. They took it down a long time ago and I've been trying to find it ever since
me toooooooo
https://youtu.be/bB8OWMYkDuo
I feel like this is exactly what I'm living right now.
All of the comments saying how underrated this song was.
Maybe we should all just post this link on Twitter with a hashtag, getting a trend started and getting this nearly 10 year old song more noticed.
Good idea? Or overrated? XD
The balance is unreal.
everything is possible. >:3
Hola atodos
