lyrics

You’re wrong, but you think you’re right
And you won’t give up the fight
Drug through the mud
You won’t stop till kingdom come

It takes time to compromise
When you make us all take sides

I’ve been thinking a lot about the words that we’ve got
They got stitches and stains from all the transparent sayings
Overused and undone, simplified all in one
Redundantly wrong and now we’re all but gone

And it’s true – I said I loved you
But now I do know it’s true

It’s such a simple phrase
But when you add it up it just complicates
You know, it’s such a simple phrase
But when you add it up we all sound the same

I’ve been thinking a lot about the words that we’ve got
They got stitches and stains from all the transparent sayings
Overused and undone, simplified all in one
Redundantly wrong and now we’re all but gone

It’s the canvas contrast with all the splotches of red
It won’t change if you squint or transform with a glint
Can’t be fitted or shaped or be made to be draped
It is what it is and it won’t change with your wish

I’ve been thinking a lot about the words that we’ve got
They got stitches and stains from all the transparent sayings
Overused and undone, simplified all in one
Redundantly wrong and now we’re all but gone

And it’s true – I said I loved you
But now I do know it’s through

It’s the canvas contrast with all the splotches of red
It won’t change if you squint or transform with a glint
Can’t be fitted or shaped or be made to be draped
It is what it is and it won’t change with your wish

I’ve been thinking a lot about the words that we’ve got
They got stitches and stains from all the transparent sayings
Overused and undone, simplified all in one
Redundantly wrong and now we’re all but gone
