Lyrics
Essential Things
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
take away the essential things
and leave what's left behind
listen to all the stories
listen to what they've said
over and over again they tell you
how it used to be but
it hasn't been that way since
like a note left on the table
like an image in your head
always think about something else
but its something else instead
teachers preaching what they never understand
its all the same
its all the way
we're different then
some things never did you wrong
never satisfy unless
you're burning up
some days are not like the rest of them
these are days we can not explain
why we believe in such incriminating mud
to cover up our mistakes
we will never be alone in your defense
we will never live and die at your expense
we will always leave the door open for anyone
like a note left on the table
like an image in your head
always think about something else
but its something else instead
teachers preaching what they never understand
its all the same
its all the way
we're different then
some things never did you wrong
never satisfy unless
you're burning up
teachers preaching what they never understand
its all the same
its all the way
we're different then
some things never did you wrong
never satisfy unless
you're burning up
