Lyrics
Like They Were
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.
None of us are angels.
And none of us are very wise.
And none of us are so delicate that we can't try.
And all we know is what they know already?Don't try to make
something out of nothing.
All that you need is right here.
Don't you like always meeting the hollow?
So pleasant and oh so sincere.
Won't this be a choice to be proud of?
Securing you until and to the bitter end?You'll be like they
were.
Look how so far it's been a waste.
Regardless of what you heard,
every life that stays is sure to fade.
Bet you thought you would be huge,
and now you're just a huge disgrace.
You can try to make up for all the choices you already made
but you already fucked up?It's wild how this life fits you.
Why apologize you're the one that's right?
This way no one can miss you.
To be with them, always with them at the party tonight?You'll be
like they were.
Look how so far it's been a waste.
Regardless of what you heard,
every life that stays is sure to fade.
Bet you thought you would be huge,
and now you're just a huge disgrace.
You can try to make up for all the choices you already made
but you already fucked up?None of us are angels.
And none of us are very wise.
None of us are so delicate that we can't try.
That we can't fly?You'll be like they were.
Look how so far it's been a waste.
Regardless of what you heard,
every life that stays is sure to fade.
Bet you thought you would be huge,
and now you're just a huge disgrace.
You can try to make up for all the choices you already made
