Lyrics
Damn Songs
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.
Damn songs,
they disguise themselves as excuses,
and a hundred other uses,
they're just smoky lullabies
Damn tunes,
they try to justify goodbyes,
wrap a guilt inside o' rhymes,
pretty sounding lies
Everytime, the wolves are barking at your door,
just throw 'em a bone and leave 'em wanting more
Damn words,
everytime i get a feeling,
I shout 'em out instead o' kneeling,
on the floor and cry
Oh because they're pretty things,
and i sure love the way they swing,
they romanticize everything,
it's the perfect crime
My baby, sometimes i wake up in a panic,
and think that i've got it, all figured out
But then, when you look out the car window and smile,
and i'm wondering if i'm that guy
All i've got are damn words,
damn tunes,
and damn songs
