Cute Is What We Aim For - Lyrical Lies lyrics

rate me

An old man gave me a tip, he said:

‘Don't waste your time with politics,’ he said,

‘Just chase skirts, instead’

‘Life is too short,

And your almost dead,’ he said.

I met a woman once,

Gave her my best shot

But never did I talk,

And talk and talk.

If I had her back

I'd be as real as my age.

I so don't blame them,

I wouldn't do the same

But I can blame them,

I'd sing her this:

And you want to be dressed in poetry

But imagery doesn't fit

And you want resizing

But darling dear,

Get a grip.

And I think what I just wrote is going over my head,

I'm stealing lines from myself.

And what I said,

Was never said.

It’s just a lyrical lie

Made up in my mind

And you want to be dressed in poetry,

But imagery doesn't fit.

And you want resizing.

But darling dear,

Get a grip

You’re moving but you’re not aware

You’re drowsy without a care

Except keeping your whites behind your lids

And your lids are your best canvas

I can only imagine what your painting

What your painting
