Dead Sara - We Are What You Say lyrics

rate me

You gotta sink to learn to swim

These are the rules that they teach

And they want you to live

Apologies will never do and I know that way too well

Brought down by somebody else's lack of education

Shouldn't be you that it hurts

But I took all the advice that I could take

Before I thought to give up

I bet you thought I'd give up

And this is what they told me...

These are the lies you gotta believe

They'll give you everything to lose if you disagree

Apologies are over used and I'd be cutting the line way too thin

I'm aware of this bitter behavior

I lost myself somewhere I never wanted to be

Now it's time to start all over - we were held to the light

But we never went blind

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back down kid, back down kid

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back out now!

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back down kid, back down kid

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back out now!

We are not what you think

Too lonely to survive the loss that was staring back with bloodshot eyes

I almost fell below the ground that I was standing on

Oh no, you said it yourself, you're disappointed

And I'm ashamed and embarrassed to say that

I was a failure, a failure

But not matter how low

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back down kid, back down kid

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back out now!

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back down kid, back down kid

Oh Oh Oh

You can't back out now!

We are what you say

Oh, oh, oh
