Simon Townshend - Genuine lyrics

rate me

All these words are genuine

all these words are genuine

All you do is runaway

and say the words don't lead to pain

Is it true what they say

that if you had your way

You would hide in the lies

and be never seen again

All these words are genuine

all these words are genuine

If I seem stupid it's alright

cause this ain't a show this is my life

I will do what I pray

in the old or new way

Heaven knows let me close

cause I've always been the same

All these words are genuine

although I know it may seem

Sometimes I'm lost in a dream

but this is to show

I'm genuine- it's really me

I am the boy- I wanted to be

I'm genuine

And when I'm angry hold my hand

and in frustration be my band

To the heart we're heading

and the load we're shedding

We can leave and believe

in the gut not in the plain

All these words are genuine

like the rose blown in the wind

Still my roots are firmly in

and this is to show

This is genuine- it's tears I cry

It's blood that I'm spilling

so why should I lie

And in the cracks there's jealousy

But does there have to be

this is to show

All our words are genuine

All these words are genuine
