lyrics

I know you don’t wanna hear what I got to say,
it’s not the right town, the right time anyways, anyways.

And I am not the kind of person
who displays emotions appropriately.

There’s a silver sort of lining on this mess
and I’m not surprised I didn’t see it when it reared its ugly head.
I wanna change the world and I wanna change myself,
but everything’s better when you’re somebody else.
Maybe in a new time, right time, I’m fine,
I will recognize the things that are good in life.

You’re not ready to think you’re ready to do this on your own.
And I’m not ready to think I’m ready to let this go.

You can’t pretend that you know
what the dirt from your body is going to grow.
There’s more rhyme than reason
in the seeds that we sow.
No one wants to admit that they’re wrong
and no one has the guts to claim they’re right when the truth burns out, fading to a dim light.

The ego of my youth is blinding me.
I have my own gravity.
The sound of my voice stifles everything,
I’m not sure that’s how it’s supposed to be.

And I am not the kind of person who displays emotion appropriately.

You can’t pretend that you know
what the dirt from your body is going to grow.
There’s more rhyme than reason
in the seeds that we sow.
No one wants to admit that they’re wrong
and no one has the guts to claim they’re right when the truth burns out, fading to a dim light. that's the way it is.

You’re not ready to think you’re ready to do this on your own
and I’m not ready to think I’m ready to let this go.
I didn’t mean to get sentimental about anything.
