Lyrics
Naive
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.
That's the wrong thing
That's the wrong thing to
That's the wrong thing to do
That's the wrong thing
That's the wrong thing to
That's the wrong thing to do
I turn a blind eye
Let the borders get wavy
Nothing touches me lately
Shouldn't I be having fun?
It's hard to define
When my memory's hazy
Everyone's trying to save me
Can't they see I'm having fun?
Something's wrong, but I choose to be naive
Can't tell no one what it means to me
Something's wrong, but I choose to be naive
And the longer that I leave it, I can feel it taking over me
Shy away and hide out
When it's calling me out
When it's weighing me down
I'll play it down
When all the trouble I've found
Comes back around
If it's catching me now
I'll play it down
Something's wrong, but I choose to be naive
Can't tell no one what it means to me
Something's wrong, but I choose to be naive
And the longer that I leave it, I can feel it taking over me
Either way, I play it down
Either way, I play it down
Either way, I play it down
I play it down
