lyrics

I don’t believe what you say
Cause you’re not sure what’s real
You don’t know what you think
You’re not sure what you feel
Come away from my life
Because I am for real

There was some grief
Some pangs of exposure
Some mix of missin
And addiction withdrawal

We walked out under streetlights
Said bye for the first time
And if you wanna dig a grave
Do it with the dead by your side

Please don’t believe what I say
Cause I’m not sure what’s real
I don’t know what I think
I’m not sure what I feel
But I’m livin my life
And yes I am for real

I’m not full of peace
But I’ve got plenty to work with
I’m not full of grief
But I’m sad all the time
I’m not sure if my settling
Is good as it’s gettin
Or if I need the best
Poured and cast up high in the sky

Blow the house down
Then throw the money out
Bend down clean up the floors
Bring your friends round
And have them bring more
Come on love
Go on and blow your house down

I don’t believe what you say
Cause you’re not sure what’s real
You don’t know what you think
You’re not sure what you feel
Come away from my life
Because I am for real

I’m not full of peace
But I’ve got plenty of life
