Bright Eyes - Southern State Lyrics
Well the songs you sung spiraledAnd hung 'round like echoesOr ripples on a pondSo you circled the globeSpent a year on the roadWithout ever going homeMore than a couple of days,Then youd leave right awayRun to a girl you barely knowBut you like how she singsAnd you cant help but thinkThat theres something that she knows and could teach youWhile youre sleeping in that southern stateWhere the bars are filled with peopleYou cant hateBut try as you tryYou still cant relate to themAnd you drink that whiskey downAs they ask you, Are you who you say you are?Are you who you say that you are?Are you who you say that you are, youAre you who you say that you are?Are you who you say you are?The fact that you cant tellMakes us like you even moreSo now youre trying againOr just visiting friendsOne that just had his heart brokeFor the first time in his lifeHe realized there are timesWhen you cant make it aloneBut now youre giving adviceAs if you had the rightTo use a word like loveNo no, its a negotiable termWhat gets saids not whats heardSo its different then for everyoneBut you been hanging roundThat college townWith youryour new life your new loverYouve found and youre keeping her up at nightBringing her downShell watch you drink yourself to deathBut wont ask you, is this really what you want?Is this really what you want?Is this really what is this really what,Is this really what you want?Is this really what you want?Are you sticking with it now because its all youve got?Are you just sticking with
